VMWARE TECHNICAL NOTE Virtual Machine to Physical Machine Migration This document describes how to migrate an existing virtual machine and migrate its ?les and con ?gurations into a physical machine This is also known as virtual to physical migration or V P migration The migration process uses third party tools to ? Prepare the source virtual machine ? Transfer the prepared source virtual machine to the hard drive of a physical machine The process for Microsoft guest operating system environments includes the use of Microsoft Sysprep and a disk imaging tool such as Symantec Ghost The process for other operating systems involves an imaging tool but does not use Sysprep as this only works for Microsoft operating systems For Linux environments the Kudzu imaging tool is a reasonable choice For information on performing a V P migration of a Linux guest operating system virtual machine refer to the documentation that accompanies your Linux imaging tool of choice The sections in this document are ? V P Migration Requirements ? Preparing for a V P Migration ? Migrating a Virtual Machine to a Physical Machine Overview ? Additional Resources ? Examples V P Migration Requirements The following sections list the V P migration requirements and restrictions ? V P Migration Third Party Tool Requirements ? V P Migration Source Machine Requirements ? V P Migration Target Machine Requirements ? V P Migration Restrictions CVMWARE TECHNICAL NOTE V P Migration Third Party Tool Requirements To migrate your virtual machine to a physical machine you need the following third party tools installed in the virtual machine ? Microsoft Sysprep ?? to prepare the image for transfer This must be installed on the source virtual machine This tool allows you to con ?gure changes to hardware devices ? Symantec Ghost or any other image transfer software ?? to transfer the prepared image You need a boot oppy for both the virtual machine and the physical machine ? Drivers for the target physical machine ?? one for the target disk drive and possibly for other hardware such as ethernet adapters V P Migration Source Machine Requirements The source virtual machine must have been created by one of the VMware virtualization platforms In addition the virtual machine must be running one of the following Microsoft guest operating systems ? Windows Professional Server or Advanced Server ? Windows XP not tested ? Windows ? Windows NT Workstation or Server not tested V P Migration Target Machine Requirements The methods outlined in this technical note are intended to apply to most Windows based physical machines The V P migration procedure has been tested with the following target host machines and an inf ?le for each these systems is provided Refer to the directory and or web location where you downloaded this document for copies of these inf ?les ? IBM xSeries ? Dell PowerEdge ? Hewlett-Packard ProLiant DL DL ? Fujitsu Siemens Computers PRMERGY RX RX RX RX P V P Migration Restrictions ? ACPI and non-ACPI hardware
