I am migrating from a demo vCenter1/View1 combo to a new server/san combo with vCenter2/View2. Both environments are not connected in any way, no shared san or things like that.

Is there a way to detach my persistent disks in View1 and migrate/move them to View2? I tried detaching them in View1 and downloading to my local computer, uploaded them in a datastore on vCenter2/View2 environment and searched for detached disks in the View management console, but the manager cannot find my detached disks.

Is there a way to do this migration, so my users don't lose their profiles?
