Just stumbled about the idea from another thread
http://communities.vmware.com/thread/132220?tstart=0
Anyway - it is no problem to do this:
__ copy a 300Mb file to a physical box
__ run a short wizard asking for details
__ schedule a reboot
__ reboot a given time
__ boot into a ramloading pe without having to change BIOS !
__ run converter and do a coldclone into ESX
If there is serious interest ... only thing missing is the wizard asking for details.
Procedure would need 2k3-sp2 and latest Converter - starter edition
Nobody interested ? - I just finished MOA 2.3 and it would be a good timing to add this feature now ...
... can't hear you :smileycool:
Hi,
Just wanted to say a couple of things:
Awesome work, and amazing ideas.
I have known about MOA very recently and still trying to get some experience with it, an impresive tool you have created.
Now the job is on our side; hopefully I can leave some feedback with my experience.
Thanks,
iborrero
Hi and welcome iborrero
If you need any help please let me know.
There are several ways to scheduled ColdClones - using Converter is only one
