This was using XenServer 6.0
- Export VM as OVF
- Shutdown the machine
- Right click and Export
- Choose the OVF format, location, and name
- Next through the rest of the screens
- This leaves you with a VHD that we can attach to and use.
- In Hyper-V create a new diskless VM in your cluster share
- Copy the VHD to the subfolder for the VM
- In the settings of the VM under the IDE Controller 0 add a new hard drive
- Browse to the VHD and OK
- Convert the VHD to VHDX
- In Hyper-V Manager select the VM and click "edit disk".
- Select the VHD, Next
- Click Convert, Next
- Select VHDX, Next
- Leave at Dynamically Expanding, Next
- Browse to the VM folder (where it will create the VHDX), typically the same location as where the VHD is currently.
- Name it (can be the same name since extension will be different)
- Finish and wait for it to create.
- Change the VM to point to the VHDX.
- Edit the VM and change the virtual hard disk path to point to the vhdx instead of the vhd.
- Ensure it boots properly
- Login and remove the XenServer tools (note it will be very slow at this point), Reboot
- Ensure integrated services is the latest version by inserting the disk and running the update.
- Remove integrated services disk
- Change IP address as needed
- After saving the IP, go back in and make sure the default gateway is listed properly.
- Remove the old VHD file.
