No, I did not. How exactly can I perform a "compatibility mode" conversion? I do not see that as an option in Starwind P2V.

What is the trick to getting a Windows 10 workstation to successfully boot in Hyper-V after it has been successfully converted? The workstation is automatically converted as a Gen 2 VM with Starwind. I feel UEFI could be the hangup. I have my Windows installation media. Is there some sort of "r...

Question: What Hyper-V services are required to be running on the target Hyper-V server in order for Starwind to be able to communicate?

I have an update: I was able to upgrade my PHYSICAL Windows Server 2012 R2 to Windows Server 2016. Then, I tried again. I am STILL getting the Access Denied error message. At this point, the firewall is completely turned off on my Windows Sever 2019 (Hyper-V) server. I was, however, now able to remo...

So much for that theory. It is NOT a network infrastructure issue. I completely removed the HP 2920 managed switch from the equation and instead, implemented a plain basic unmanaged gigabit switch and am still getting an Access Denied error message when trying to connect to the remote Hyper-V server...

That is a good suggestion. I currently have the new server connected to a higher end HP 2920 managed gigabit ethernet switch. Perhaps there is something on the HP 2920 that is blocking the P2V connection to Hyper-V. It is also worth noting that I am also unable to connect to the new Hyper-V server f...

What sort of possible "constrained communications" do you think it could be? Are you saying I should upgrade my Windows Server 2012 R2 to 2016 before performing the migration? Is it possible to convert a Windows Server 2012 R2 physical machine to a virtual machine hosted on a Windows Serve...

It appears to me that a Domain / Active Directory network is a requirement in order to be able to perform P2V ops. Correct me if I am wrong. Currently, our configuration only consists of standalone servers. I am running into brick walls as a result. Please let me know if my analysis is correct. Than...

Thank you for your reply! I have tried several things already, including disabling firewall, adding the required ports to be open on TCP & UDP (135, 443, 445) all to no available. Furthermore, my configuration consists of Windows Server 2012 R2 (physical machine) and Windows Server 2022 (hyper-v...

Hello, I am trying to convert a physical machine to a virtual Hyper-V machine and am running into Access is denied upon authentication. Can someone please help? I've already tried opening firewall ports (WMI - port 135, etc.) to no avail. Below is a copy of my logfile. TIA! The log file name: 'logs\...
