Migrate a WIM image to VMware

[BillStreet00]

I have extracted a Windows Nano server build from Windows 2016 and used the MS tools to create a WIM image.  Is there an easy way to get that image into VMware? My goal is to create a template from and be able to deploy base Nano servers through vRA.

Thanks

Hello,

Easiest way I can think of on this is to create a VM and deploy the VIM image to the VM and create a template.  Does not appear to be a direct convert from VIM to VM.

Matt I ended up creating a bootable WIM, created a blank VM, booted that VM on my WIM and exploded the image onto it.  It works, just not real pretty.
