VMware to Hyper-V Converter

About This Tool

VMware to Hyper-V Converter translates a VMware-based VM into a Hyper-V compatible instance by converting disk formats, remapping virtual hardware, and preserving essential VM characteristics. It accepts VMware artifacts (VMX, VMDK paths) and produces Hyper-V-ready assets (VHDX disks and a guided VM definition). The tool targets IT admins, data centers, and managed service providers planning Hyper-V deployments or mixed-hypervisor environments where workload continuity matters.
Conceptual workflow: the system parses the VMware VM descriptor, enumerates each virtual disk, converts VMDK to VHDX, aligns partitions, and reorganizes virtual hardware to Hyper-V equivalents (SCSI controller types, NIC adapters). It adjusts boot configurations and attempts to preserve OS boot integrity. Validation checks verify disk integrity, OS compatibility, and integration services readiness where applicable.
Core value: it enables batch migrations, reduces manual reconfiguration, and improves migration reliability. It supports Windows and Linux guests, reports conversion details, and produces a Hyper-V-ready VM definition plus converted disks. Use cases include data-center consolidation, disaster-recovery rehearsals, and cloud-to-on-premises migrations, with option for dry-run validation and detailed logs.
