Thanks Andrew. Merry Christmas!

Thanks Andrew!

Thanks for your feedback, it most certainly is a pertinent topic for any organisation looking at deploying Copilot.

Glad it was useful 👍

No problem at all, we're glad you found it useful. In answer to your question, yes, it is possible to leave the VMs running in VMware while restoring into Hyper-V, but obviously, any data generated or saved on the running VMs during that time will not be present on the restored machines. If the servers in question do not store data in this manner, then this is probably not an issue. Also, it does mean that you will not be able to remove the VMWare tools prior to restoring the machine into Hyper-V, which would be preferable, as removing them following the restore is less straightforward when the virtual hardware is no longer present. Hope this helps. Please contact us if you need any further help: 01932 232345

Thanks so much for the feedback.

Thanks for the feedback Andrew.

Based on our experience, migrating a VMware VM to Hyper-V using SCVMM requires ensuring sufficient disk space on the SCVMM server for several operations. Specifically, you need enough space to temporarily store the VM’s files, including virtual hard disks and configuration files, as well as additional space for conversion workspace and intermediate files. As a general guideline, have at least as much free disk space as the total size of the VM's data, plus extra for overhead. Also, for VMs with virtual disks larger than 2TB, you should ensure that the SCVMM server is updated to support these larger sizes. You can also direct temporary files to a different storage location to better manage disk space. Hope this helps!

Thanks so much.

Thanks so much Andrew, we're glad you found it of use.

You're welcome David, thanks for the feedback. Good luck with your migration, we're glad our video has given you some useful insights.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad our video was helpful to you. Thank you for sharing your experiences and workarounds; your insights shed light on important considerations that others may encounter in similar scenarios. We haven't encountered any permissions problems, and the servers we used were fairly well specified for storage, but we will be vigilant and provide an update if we run into this limitation. Thanks again for watching, and best of luck with your migrations, if you need any help or advice, please feel free to contact us.

Thanks for your interest and feedback, it is great to hear that you enjoy our video format. We decided not to do the 2008 migration because Server 2008 has been out of support since Jan 2020, but we would be happy to assist you with a migration to a supported version of Windows Server. Don't hesitate to get in touch if you require any help or advice.

Cheers 😁, it's been around a while now, might need to invest in a new one next year!

Thanks Rick, glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks Catherine

So glad you enjoyed them.

Hi there, unfortunately, this is not something we can assist with, however, there is some information on the education and certification options available on the Darktrace website: darktrace.com/company/education

Thanks Catherine, we're glad you found it of interest.

Thanks, it really is so simple to set up and use.

Thanks Dan. Glad you found it of interest.

Thanks Jon, glad you found it of use.

Thanks Marion. If we all embark on this journey we can pave the way toward a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable future.

Absolutely Jon, with so much risk, it is important to raise awareness for everyone.

Thanks for sharing your insights Ben.

Thanks Marion, glad you found it useful.

That's great to hear. Thanks so much Stewart!

Hi Abhishek, you are correct in saying that there are no manually defined separate “Storage Pools”. However, all the NVMe flash disks within the array are automatically added to a single pool of storage. When a volume is created, it consumes space from that “pool”. Hope that helps!

Brilliant isn't it!
