Conversion P2V 2003 server hangs...

Hello

I saw this posted problem before and have not been able to use someone elses solution for this problem.  I'm looking for a P2V of Windows Server 2003 Std Edition conversion.  I am importing the machine via vSphere client to vCenter using vCenter Converter 4.2.1.  I tried cloning hot passer-by several times and did not have much more far than 4% after allowing the process to run more than 24 hours.  During this process, it almost seems to stop and does it without error.  I have attached the papers of control that I have tried everything I can point so far without success.  I did this process with other machines and no problems.  I tried the standalone Converter 4.3 on the source machine with no luck either.  I don't know what to look for...

Post edited by: TerryOdom - good call.  That's what I get to be in a hurry.  Let's try this again

I think it is the stop of services I mentioned first and try the migration to hot and make the migration cold if all else fails.  I've dealt with a couple of SQL servers running and stop and usually things related services has helped tremendously.  Also take a look at the judgment of other non-critical services.  If the discs are not huge migration should be much faster.

  • P2v Windows 2003 Server

    I have a Windows 2003 Server physical that we would like P2v, but drive C has only about 100 MB remaining.  Drive D has 25 GB.    My preference is to install Converster on this server and run locally, but as the C drive is low on space, it may be better to do it remotely.   However, I was wondering if there is a way to always run locally if I install the converter on the D drive.  Is this possible?

    With only 100 MB on the left, I highly recommend you free disk space before you do anything else to avoid problems (not only related to the converter). What I did in the past in such situations, is to configure the location of the page file to the server, which will release usually a few GB (depending on its current size).

  • Virtualization of a physical Windows 2003 Server Standard live by Ethernet

    I intend to virtualize a Windows Server 2003 server standard of Ethernet based field.

    I am currently using the VMware Workstation 10.0.1 and I noticed/hear about the possibility of using "Virtualize a physical machine" to create a testmachine identical to one of my physical servers to clients.

    The physical server is running on a network domain, and it is quite critical.

    Can confirm them, it is possible to virtualize a Windows 2003 Server?

    Is it not possible to virtualize the server for example, live by Ethernet, without disturbing it?

    Best regards, Reynir

    Your physical Windows Server 2003 machine is a domain controller or a member server standalone field?

    If your server is not a domain controller, you can do a P2V from this machine without stops services, but there are always recommend stop all non Microsoft and no VMware services before starting the conversion, just to be course, there is any alteration of the data and other services like antivirus train killing the process of converter.

    For P2V recommended, please visit: KB VMware: best practices for using and troubleshooting VMware Converter

    And for the video tutorial of the P2V with VMware: VMware KB: convert a physical machine to the Fusion, Workstation or Player using stand-alone converter

  • Convert a physical box 2003 Server vm and the VM is extremely slow. Trying to connect again...

    Convert a physical box 2003 Server vm and the VM is extremely slow. Trying to connect again...

    This is my first time converting a physical box to virtual. This is Server 2003. The conversion took place and I try to connect to the box now but it's so slow. Currently, he sat to apply personal settings for almost 10 minutes.

    My boss has converted physical to virtual several times before and never said that he ran into something like this.

    Am I missing something? Any suggestions?

    I think that it is always looking for active directory. the newly P2V'ed will operate all IP settings. Therefore, you will need to wait until it has expired, and then enter the IP that is (ip, dns and etc.) above. the other way to speed things up would be to disconnect your network and the thing that your OS to expired immediately.

  • Server 2003, Server SQL 2000 gel. maximum disk queue

    Yeh yeh her legacy I know but its still in production.

    Here are the specs;

    • farm of about 30 guests
    • vsphere vcenter 5 servers
    • San iscsi EMC to 24 pins
    • Server is server 2003 32-bit. the memory is about 3.4 GB used of CPU resources available 4 GB is 2 Sockets with 4 cores per socket. P2V has had a number of years
    • all other servers seem to be good and have performance issues.

    I have a question where the 2003 server is suspended and become unresponsive. End users who use the software and the website that communicates with the SQL database also complain of poor performance. the UI Office stops, then crashes at the same time

    I checked the performance of the server vsphere host running this comments and resources are not overloaded. Maximum rate of CPU is around 40%

    I loaded the performance monitor on the comments and added leading % and page of memory/cpu, av/disk queue counters. When the user interface is blocked, users experience performance issues line av/drive hits 100%. Queue drive returns to normal and the responsiveness performance returns.

    I also ran perfmon on another server that resides in the same data store server and vsphere and I don't see any of the questions / crashes or maximums of the disk queue, so it seems to me be associated comments.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Yes you can do for the person who is affected, yes as by EMC to proceed with the restart,

    I always suggest don't do nothing too your storage space for production servers, perform a good capacity analysis and ensure that the load across storage are well balanced.

    All the best and hope you will fix the problem...

  • How to install Windows 2003 Server virtual appliance

    Hi all

    I installed VMware server 2.0 and created a new virtual machine.

    Now, I want to install the microsoft windows 2003 Server virtual appliance. I downloaded the same from the microsoft site and there is an .exe file and two .rar files.

    I want to know how to install these files on my virtual machine.

    You help me please about this request.

    Thank you and best regards,

    Himanshu

    Server 2.0 won't open it without conversion because it is in the format Microsoft Virtual PC/Virtual Server that's why you need to go through the converter.

    When you run the converter, select 'Other' as the source type, find the .vmc file and destination choose "Other virtual machines" and give it a name and a location where to put the files it produces.

    Hello

    I m wondering that you want to install Windows server on a laptop...

    In any case, it is a known problem and also happens on XP and Vista. To fix this you need to use the laptop SATA driver or you change the SATA mode in the BIOS by AHCI compatible, then you don't need a driver.

    Here are some instructions that might be useful for you:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

    I do not know if you will get a driver for Server 2003 but you can try the XP driver and in the worst cases, it must use compatible mode m.

    Let me give you a little advice: If you have other questions, use the forum search. You can find hundreds of discussions about this.

  • Satellite M100-180: where can I find drivers for Win 2003 Server?

    We bought a Microsoft Windows 2003 server. I have install then on our laptop Toshiba Satellite M100-180 PSMA1E-02Q00WRU.

    With the laptop, I found Windows XP CD and Express media player recovery CD Reanimator. No disc drivers there. May be dealer lost drivers disk? If that - where can I get new CD of drivers (I am from Russia, Smolensk)

    I try to download the drivers from the web (toshiba.com.ru), but they are very large (I have a dial-up internet). Then I download driver modem (4M). Installation of the works, but no modem appear after that. And no serial port too.

    I plug the USB-serial converter and install Standart Modem (USR external). Then I have to connect to the internet and try to download the drivers with windows update. No results...

    HEEEEEEELP ME! :)

    PS Sorry for my English :)

    Hello

    : D the dealer nothing lost! The pilot tools & utilities can be created in the Windows XP operating system that came with the laptop.
    With the help of Toshiba, you will find a Protect & Fix tab and the option to create a driver disk ;)

    Further, all the XP drivers are placed on the page of the Toshiba driver. But unfortunately, nothing for Win 2003 server.
    Maybe test it works for XP drivers also on Server 2003

    To find the driver download page please go to

  • Installation of Windows 2003 Server on Tecra

    I bought a Tecra Toshiba last month and since we are a team of developers, we decided to convert it to a server and Windows Server 2003 installed in the process I lost all the drivers (I forgot to backup the drivers).
    Available drivers are for windows XP, how can I get the drivers from the server on my PC because it is useless, because we can't even connect to the network.

    The ideas and the links will be appreciated.

    Hello

    First of all, all Toshiba drivers you will find on the page of the Toshiba driver.
    Also Toshiba does not have portable computers with a Windows Server operating system.
    It supports only a Win XP and other Windows OS to the common address.
    In this case you will find all the drivers for Win 2003 server.

    I recommend you LAN card and try to get the driver for card LAN card manufacturers form the LAN.
