About This Tool
This tool provides a standards-based, automated pathway to convert QCOW2 disk images to VMware-compatible VMDK format. Target users are IT admins, cloud engineers, and VM migration specialists who need to move workloads from QCOW2-based environments to VMware ESXi/vSphere without recreating disks. It supports lab testing and production migrations, and is designed for integration into automation pipelines.
Conceptually, the converter reads the QCOW2 image, resolves allocated clusters, and writes VMDK blocks in a compatible layout. It supports both single-disk and multi-disk images, respects thin or thick provisioning, and can verify integrity via checksums. The process is deterministic and non-destructive to the source.
Unique value comes from lossless transformation, automated validation, and compatibility checks across VMware versions, enabling reliable migrations with minimal manual intervention.
How to Use
1. Provide inputs: Upload QCOW2 source image and select destination format as VMDK.
2. Configure options: choose provisioning (thin or thick), sector size, and output path.
3. Run conversion: initiate the process and monitor progress in the tool\'s log.
4. Validate outputs: check final size, checksum, and compatibility notes.
5. Retrieve outputs: download the VMDK and metadata, then attach to a VM for testing.
