Hi All,

I have a 2node ESXi cluster with a Dell storage over iSCSI.Due to Broadcom I'd like to move to Hyper-V. I only purchased the servers and the SAN in 2022 so I don't want to replace this but I wondering how I can do the migration. I was thinking that I could use an existing NAS that I have and add that as an NFS datastore and use that to store the new VHDXs, so that I can the rebuild the new Hyper-V cluster, and then move the VMs back in. We also have Veeam currently but I don't think I can use this since we don't have new hardware to restore the VMs to. Please could you let me know what you think may be the best approach here ?

Thanks,

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    Microsoft supports the solution of converting VMware virtual machines to Hyper-V virtual machines on SCVMM. You can refer to the following documents.

    What is Virtual Machine Manager? | Microsoft Learn

    System requirements for Virtual Machine Manager | Microsoft Learn

    Plan VMM installation | Microsoft Learn

    Set up VMware servers in the VMM compute fabric | Microsoft Learn

    Convert a VMware VM to Hyper-V in the VMM fabric | Microsoft Learn

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    Best regards

    Zunhui
