SaturdayMP Show 55: Migrating from VMWare to Hyper-V

Posted on November 8, 2024 by Chris C

In this video I migrate an Ubuntu VMWare Workstation hard disk to Hyper-V. I get stuck trying to enable enhanced session at the end. I think the problem is I need to set the EnhancedSessionTransportType to HvSocket: 

Set-VM -VMName WsUbuntuExample -EnhancedSessionTransportType HvSocket

I’ll try that at a later date and let you know if works. Please let me know if you think above will work and if you have any improvements on migrating virtual machines.
