Physical server Instant disk recovery to Hyper-V VM

Post by phiaramos »

Hello,

I just want to ask, if Instant disk recovery is also available for Hyper-V VMs?
I'm only seeing guide for VMware but none on Hyper-V. Because we are planning to use this feature to migrate volumes of a physical Windows file server to a Hyper-V VM. We cannot use the Instant VM recovery because the OS is out of support already. One workaround I'm also thinking is to use bare-metal recovery (Recovery media) to recover the volume on the Hyper-V VM.
Feel free to also recommend, thank you! :)

Regards,
Phia

Hello Phia,

I suggest using Disk Export functionality - it allows you to export the disk from the backup to virtual machine format and then you can attach it to the virtual machine. Thank you!
