Hello,

The free V2V Converter works really great. Thanks for making it available!

Maybe this is already mentioned before, but I did not see it:
I am in the process of going from ESXi to Hyper-V. The Hyper-V servers are in a Windows Failover Cluster with a SAN. The SAN storage space is on the Hyper-V server available as C:'\ClusterStorage\Volume1, etc. So this path is used by the Converter. Which is fine.
But the Converter checks disk space, but it returns the disk space on the C: drive of the Hyper-V host and not the SAN disk space. So, with a C: drive space of 100 GB and a SAN disk space of 3 TB, the conversion of a image of 120 GB to the Hyper-V cluster is not allowed. Would it be possible to change this behavior?
Thanks!

Regards,

Jac
