摘要: Physical (or prior virtual) machine volumes can be converted to virtual machines at a host while the physical are running. In one implementation, volume shadow copy service used create an application (and/or file system)-consistent snapshot of or more The data then transferred mounted hard disk (dynamic fixed) host. Operational information (e.g., boot record, system registry, drivers, devices, configuration preferences, etc.) associated with and operating system(s) within modified as appropriate ensure that corresponding is bootable functional un-mounted, new machine.
