P2V-Hyper - V Server 2003 license

We want to test P2V of a file server, but not actually to use the virtual copy of the Server 2003 file in production.  I finished the P2V and the server is now in Hyper-V, but when I restart him and try to connect, he wants me to reactivate the license server, if I do it will be the origin server (physical server active still in production) stop working or reveals the key is no longer valid? If so, is there a way to circumvent this problem, because we have not both upwards at the same time in the production?

Thanks - John

    We are to modernize a client from an old Server 2003 to new hardware Server 2008.
    I was wondering if there re 50 CAL to buy for them, we bought or if we can transfer those from the old server.
    The former will be decommissioned and formatted.

  • A standard Small Business SERVER 2003 Server upgrade SBS Server 2003 R2 STandard requires the new CLIENT access licenses?

    I got a new server and the server only supports the SBS 2003 R2 and more. I have tried slipstreaming drivers and all that already, without success. I have SBS Server 2003 Standard now with 15 CLIENT access licenses. If I buy a copy of SBS 2003 R2 on ebay to get the installation done, Microsoft requires new or different CLIENT access licenses or licensing of the R2 or 2003 SBS CAL upgrade existing will be sufficient? Any info would be much appreciated!

    Hi all

    Once the converter VMware-converter-en - 5.5.1 - 1682692 does not work, with a touch of friend uninstall the 5.5 version of Converter Standalone Client, look for the VMware converter version - 4.0.0 - 146302 and install this version to the other machine. No not that I had to be Converter, but the windows 7 Pro 64-bit.

    After this race, the Standalone Client 4.4 Converter and everything work fine.

    Now I have the P2V converted and good machine, as was the real operation!

    I thank all of you.

    Best regards

  • P2V. Server 2003 R2 w / extended drives

    I P2V had an instance of Server 2003 R2 and in VMware converter I had develop three volumes:

    C - system

    D data

    E - newspapers

    When that I start the VM, my computer won't display the D drive was correctly extended. C and E kept their original storage space.

    When I open the Disk Manager, it shows that all three have been extended.

    In Diskpart, it also shows that all three have been extended.

    Can someone point me in the right direction to get the other two correctly extended?

    It's weird... it usually works very well.

    If the converter doesn't do the trick for some reason, perhaps a workaround might be a good solution here. If your converter does not work properly with any machine, then maybe another instance of converter can help you.

    If a workaround is a valid option, here are some links on how to expand the sizes of disks (legacy OS boot partitions are a bit special)

  • 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...

    Do not delete the boot.ini file! It is your Windows startup configuration.

    You should remove \boot folder or as an alternative just rename it to \boot.bak for example.
