how to copy Vm from a cluster to a HDD of a standalone ESX?

Hi all,

Is it possible to copy VMs from a cluster of 4 ESX 3.5 to the hard disk of a standalone ESX 3.5?

If yes, how can i do this?

you can use vmware converter to do so.

Thank you for your answer, it's a good idea

But I'd like to backup my VMs on the standalone ESX not manualy, like once a week.

the new backup will erase the older one

The VMs are prod servers, so i can't stop them.

I heard about VCB, but I don't know how to configure that.

do you have another solution?

HELP!!!
