Re: Use of a file share for Hyper-v conversion

Good morning, Oleg. I'd be more than willing to test out a beta version of the software to make sure that the ability exists to use file shares. Let me know!

thx

Re: Use of a file share for Hyper-v conversion

That is great news! I will be a huge benefit to those that have large server blade farms with very little local disk. Thanks for all you guys are doing!

Re: Use of a file share for Hyper-v conversion

Good morning, Oleg. When I run a list volume in diskpart it only shows 2 volumes...0 & 1. That is the c:\ drive and the system reserved drive. It doesn't show the persistent drive that we created (location of where the VM needs to go).

Re: Use of a file share for Hyper-v conversion

The application installs properly on a Windows 2016 core server. I ran a conversion from the 2016 server where the file share exists and it still only shows the local disk (C:\).

Ideas?

Re: Use of a file share for Hyper-v conversion

Re: Use of a file share for Hyper-v conversion

We mapped a drive to the hyper-v host trying both "net use" and "New-PSDrive" making the drive persistent. No go. We can still only see the Local Disk under the Datastore section of the hyper-v host.

Thoughts?

Re: V2V - ESXi Version not supported?

With the new download I was able to connect the Starwinds software to an ESXi 6.5 host. AWESOME!

Use of a file share for Hyper-v conversion

I am trying to convert a VMDK to VHDX. I am doing this with a locally copied VMDK since vSphere 6.5 is yet to be supported. When I get to the portion of where the VHDX files are to be stored it gives me the local disk of the Hyper-v host. Is it possible to save the converted files to a file share? W...
