Hello!
I have a VC in a virtual machine!
I can migrate to phisical machine with the same name?
The main component you need to keep safe is the VC database. This is normally in SQL or Oracle.
If your database isn't installed on the existing VM with VC, then it makes the job even easier.
Build a new physical server and install windows.
Create a system DNS ODBC link to the existing database.
Install the VirtualCenter software.
If you need to migrate a database, that's also fairly straight forward and will be well documented on google.
Yeah, provided they are not on at the same time, there's no reason why you couldn't v2p a virtualcenter server.
Sorry, somebody has some procedure to make it ??
Nothing different from any other Server.
Do a DB backup.
do a OS backup. (or keep a vmdk copy)
Run your v2p tool.
You can use Platespin Powerconvert or

Thanks for all, folks!
But, i need install a new phisical machine and migrate the service of Virtual Center.
I can migrate the DB in another server with different hostname?
Thanks in advance!
Sure you can.
There are several methods. First of all stop VC then:
1) Backup DB and run sql script to catch all table info and so on.
Restore DB on new server and run sql script to override table info and so on.
2) Backup DB. Detach DB and run sql script to catch all table info and so on.
Attach db on new server and run sql script to override table info and so on.
3) Run DTS to copy DB.
