VMware ESX 3.x VM to VMware Server 1.0.1VM

There are two techniques you can use to migrate a VMWESX 3.x virtual machine to VMWSVR.

1. Create a new VMWSVR VM and point its disks to a copy of a snap of your ESX VM disks
2. Copy entire snap (inc .vmx file) to VMWSVR then delete “catalog” file and rename .vmdk file(s)

VMware ESX 3.x network driver "pcnet32" loads instead of "vmxnet"

There is information about a VMware ESX patch that makes ESX virtual machines correctly use the “vmxnet” network driver at vmware kb
