Export VM from 11.2-u7 to XCP-NG?

[Greg_E]

I have a single windows server VM that I set up that I'd like to be able to export and run on XCP-NG, is there an "easy" way to export this VM? I looked in the interface and did a quick google and it doesn't seem like this is directly possible, looks like my best chance is something like disk2vhd and take the resulting image over to my XCP-NG pool, is this correct? Just wanted to ask to see if there was an easier solution.

And no XCP-NG is not on the same storage as the VM, at least not right now. In the process of testing XCP-NG and wanted to try moving a few servers over to it to see if I'm better off just creating fresh server installs or migrating servers from physical to VM.

Use clonezilla

• boot the source VM on the clonezilla
• boot the destination VM on clonezilla
• transfer the disk image through the network

That's an interesting way of doing this, I'll have to look into it. Thanks.

I did grab a VHD with disk2vhd that I'm going to try pushing over to my test system.
