P2V

[Ashfold]

Hi

 

Can someone help me with a P2V issue I am having?

 

I am using Disk2vhd v2.01 to virtualise a 2008 server following the instructions from Veeam and when I covert my c drive and system reserved partition it creates 2 vhds.

 

when adding these to a new virtual machine in Hyper-V on my 2012 r2 hosts the new VM will not boot, I assume this is because the 2 disks need to be on one disk.

 

I have trawled the internet and all the instructions skip over this so I assume I am doing something fundamentally wrong but I can work out what.

 

Thanks in Advance

 

Mike

Sorry for replying to my own post.

 

I just did this again with the system restore partition as disk the first hard disk on IDE 0 and the system disk as the second disk on IDE 0 and after this error Hyper-V virtual machine may not start, and you receive a “‘General access denied error’ (0x80070005)” error message which I fixed by giving the VM access to the disk following these instructions it worked.

 

I am going to attribute this to the power of Edugeek.
