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

    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.

  • can I install Windows 2003 server in my computer hp laptop pav14-v021tu

    Hai

    My system came with windows 8, when I bought.

    But now I thing I finstalling windows server 2003 in this laptop, I heard from my local technician some computers laptops hp does not support Server 2003 (he said need some drivers from hard disk sata hard or something like that)

    As I have not super-hotel with this stuff,

    some we can't so please say argues this model the windows sever 2003 if so this laptop has no other than the Server 2003 addinational drivers to work

    Thank you

    Hello:

    The technician is correct on the sata drivers are needed.

    The problem is that your laptop is an Intel 4th generation of processor and chipset of the 8 series.

    Intel develops not all drivers sata for this chipset, so windows XP and 2003 server will not install on the PC with this chipset.  Nor are there at - he graphics drivers for Windows 2003 server, and probably many other features would not have driver support for hardware that your PC has.

  • Extremely slow CHKDSK on external Drobo B1200i connected to a Windows 2003 Server)

    (I have a Drobo B1200i related to an unresolved external server) windows 2003 Server), with 9 x 4, double redundancy to discs. The scoreboard shows that all drives are healthy. The player has 2 LUNs. One of the units is 16TO and used to store data, some are small files and some are large files. We found errors when you try to save this logical unit, which prompted running chkdsk. Run us CHKDSK G:/x/f/r it was launched on 22 may at 18:00. He ran steps 1-3 to 25 may, making hundreds of repairs (deleting entry index... recovery of file... orphans replacing non-security IDS valid... Insert the attribute data to place...)

    He has been blocked since May 25 (for 3.5 days) 60% of the step 4 of 5, moving very slowly. Currently, it reads "(14191283 of 20660608 processed files) all 60 percent" the number of processed files remains to be the same number of hours and moves upward then 5000 files and then a few hours left in the same issue for others... At this rate, it may take 3-4 months at the end!

    My questions are the following:

    1 - is it normal to take this amount of time with the large disk like mine (16 TB)?

    2. is there a risk of data loss if I stop it now?

    3. is there a chance that what has already been solved during the early stages is all that was needed, and that interrupts it the process now will be harmless?

    4. If I stop the process now and errors persist, and I decide to run CHKDSK again, it run faster for the early stages and get to the current point faster than the 6 days it has taken to get this far? or it will take another 6 days to join the current point?

    This issue is beyond the scope of this site and must be placed on Technet or MSDN

  • Windows server 2008 r2 domain controller deletes printers on windows 2003 Server

    We have recently installed two new Windows Server 2008 R2 servers in our field.  one of the new servers is the new domain controller (successor of Windows Server 2003 SBS, which has been decommissioned).  There are two other Windows 2003 servers in the domain.  When we turn off all servers for maintenance and then power them back on, the print on the windows 2003 Server spooler crashes; printers are deleted and the server does not allow you to add printers.  is this be caused by some settings in windows server 2008 r2?  This happened twice, and the solution is to rub the print on the windows 2003 Server spooler and reinstall the printers from scratch.
