Hi there,


Does anyone have some experience with a migation of a physical Netware 5.1
server to a VMWare server environment? All i read on the internet is how
straight forward this should be. However, i created a disk image with Ghost
and restored it into a newly created VM (Netware) with a created virtual
disk. rebooring results in an hanging VM...

We do have an upcoming project where we should virtualize a Netware 5.1
machine with 80 Gb of data....

Please help !!

Leon

I don't understand why you use Ghost. Did you check some of these papers:
