My friend T.K has a great way to use Vmware converter. He convert his laptop at work to a VM file and he can run this virtual machine at his home PC. He consider it as a one time backup. However, I realize this is a great use. For the past one year and half , I have to bring my laptop from work everyday just in case someone from work might call me and I need computer to support the problem infrastructure. The laptop has VPN, eRoom agent and ticket system agent on it, so I have to use this laptop instead of my home PC. Many time, I left my laptop on my car, because I need this just in case. If I borrow Thomas 's idea, convert this laptop to a VM running on my home PC, and the life will be very easy by saving many time to carry laptop from and to work.
I did a P-to-V convert today, and it take me about 70 minute to complete 2 10G partition PC by using import wizard. It only create one .vmdk file although there are two partitions at the source.
I also need to disable " simple file share" to make converting work.
