Recommendation for migrating Hyper V virtual machines to HPE VME

[jtemm1966]

Good Morning,

In process of formulating plan to migrate Hyper V Virtual Machines to a new HPE VME Environment......any suggestions on best tool to migrate these Hyper V VM's.....

If it were me, I'd probably look at StarWind's V2V convertor (it's free), and export the Hyper-V machine to qcow2 format, then import into VME.  You didn't mention what your underlying infrastructure / storage is going to be for VME, but if it's NFS, then you could theoretically mount the NFS volume to the Hyper-V host and save yourself a transfer step and export (the qcow2) directly to NFS, and then define the VMs with virsh.  Otherwise, you'll need to export to somehwere the Hyper-V host can read to (NTFS) and then use WinSCP or FileZilla to transfer the qcow2 to VME's datastore.

The underlying storage is an HPE MSA 2070 ISCSI SAN.....
