Vmware Vcenter Converter Standalone 7.0 Download

vmconverter is no longer officially supported - i believe there are many sites hosting this outside of the vmware bubble, but caution is advised with this route. Other options may be to use StarWind V2V converter this may help.
I was able to create the service and uninstall using the following command: sc create vmware-converter-agent binPath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone\vmware-converter-a.exe" -s "C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone\converter-agent.xml" displayname= "VMware vCenter Standalone Agent" I would proceed to use the same command to create the other 2 services: vmware-converter-server vmware-converter-worker Now that I have uninstalled the client from the machine, I restarted and completed a clean install. Now i'm getting the following error when I attempt to manually start services: Windows could not start the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Agent service on Local Computer. Error 1053: The Service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
i've attempted creating the service but i'm not sure i'm doing it properly sc screate servicename binPath= "point to exe file in standalone converter agent" After rebooting and attempting uninstall it continues to throw an error message. Can you give me the proper command that explicitly points to the correct directory?
We just stood up our VxRails with a vSphere environment and now we are attempting to convert our existing Hyper-V virtual machines running on a failover cluster on 3 Windows server 2012R2 nodes using the free utility vCenter converter standalone to convert the Hyper-V vms to VMware VM on vSphere infrastructure. In the converter, after selecting a source Hyper-V server with credentials and viewing the VMs running on this node, i selected a virtual machine that is powered off then click next but i get an error: "Permission to perform this operation was denied".
BTW for some reason even on lates vcenter converter, despite the misleading error on "source" when is actually the target, looks like vCenter converter wont access any share, it just dont like it, even a public ones.
If you will want to do it over network (specially if the machine is big and you dont have external drive), you can open the windows disk management, and create a VHD disk, and select the share folder. This will encapsulate the VM into a VHD file, which is not ideal, but vCenter will write the image to a "physical local disk" but is actually writing it to the network.
Just remember to uncheck the "D:" (or whatever the drive you added to the VHD file) when converting the machine
Yesterday I downloaded the standalone converter from filehorse.com and converted my old XP system to a VM. I will find out if it works in a few hours when the copy is done. I followed the instructions here: -your-existing-windows-xp-system-into-a-virtual-machine/ and so far so good. I also found out that even though my XP system is old, the latest converter still worked.
