VM Migration Assistant

---

VM Migration Assistant is a free tool for cloning and transforming VMs from one format to another, as well as converting physical machines into virtual ones. It is utilized when migration or hypervisor switch is required. Compared to the typical converters built into hypervisors, it offers bi-directional conversion between all the major VM formats: VMDK, VHD/VHDX, QCOW(2), VDI and raw binary image.

VM Migration Assistant has numerous competitive gains over converters built into hypervisors(in plan). First, it supports bi-directional VM conversion between different hypervisors. For saving time during migration and hypervisor switch, V2V Converter / P2V Migrator enables to convert VMs directly from one hypervisor storage to another, without creating an extra VM disk copy. On top of that, the utility ensures a safe P2V migration by using a VSS snapshot of the source machine to ensure data consistency.
