windows physical to virtual
-
I am migrating a physical Windows Server to virtual, I exported the VM in VHDX format, what is the procedure to transfer this VHDX image to my XCP-ng?
-
Hi,
See https://docs.xcp-ng.org/installation/migrate-to-xcp-ng/#-from-hyper-v (export in VHD, not VHDX)
-
I'm not sure if you would have to convert it to OVA or XVA but you would normally just import it.

I will import it through XCP-ng Center, but should it be in VHD? I remember reading somewhere that it needs to be VHDX for XCP-NG Center

Well XCP-ng center may work, its not the tool of choice for this type of work. Xen Orchestra or XOA would be the ideal ways

I understand, can you guide me on how to install and use XO?

There is documentation on the website "installing XO from source" or you can google search it. I have a GitHub repo myself that makes the installation process very straight-forward.

If you want to try out the pre-built appliance (XOA), then you can deploy it from here.
-
@DustinB Oh cool, can you please send me the link to the GitHub repository?
-
@elentescaro13 check your DMs

@elentescaro13 all set?
