Hi,
I need to migrate some VM's from Workstation 7 to Server 2.0.2. The host OS is Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard and the guests are Windows 7 64-bit. I shutdown the WS 7 VM, clone it to remove any old snapshots, and copy it over into a data store on the server. Then I "Add Virtual
Machine to Inventory", locate the vmx file. The host then crashes along with the webconsole session. The log file doesn't seem terribly helpful, it looks like it doesn't know how to read to info in the vmx??
Any ideas?
