ESXi 8.0.3 → XCP-ng 8.3 imports boot time slow
-
Why would it take 30 minutes to boot a Windows ESXi 8.0.3 imported VM in XOA on the first boot?

sysprep on windows is also sometimes required, but will require that you reactive the OS with it's product key.

@DustinB Yes

@DustinB Why?

@firefly because the underlying hardware that the VM has registered has likely changed, maybe substantially.
A sysprep has the Windows system go through and validate what it's hardware is, it removes hardware specific drivers namely, but it does other stuff too.
