Hi Mario, you might also want to look at some of the other vendor converters - depending on which HV you are converting to:
https://www.citrix.com/go/products/xenserver/xenserver-xenconvert-free.html http://www.vmware.com/uk/products/converter https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=42497 Nux¹ comments still stand though - whatever migration method you use you will have to sort HV specific drivers and tools as part of the conversion - which sometimes involve some surgery.
