Running a one-time conversion of a physical recovery
point to a virtual disk
You can use Symantec System Recovery to convert recovery points of a physical
computer to VMware virtual disk. You can also convert recovery points to Microsoft
virtual disk, or a VMware ESX Server. Virtual disks are excellent for testing and
evaluation purposes.
The following platforms support virtual disks created from recovery points:
■ VMware Workstation 4, 5, 6, and 6.5
■ VMware ESX Server 3.0, 3.5, 3.5i, 4.0, 4.0i, 4.1, and 4.1i
■ VMware Server 1
■ Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2 and later
■ Microsoft Hyper-V 1.0 and 2.0
You can also create scheduled recovery point conversions to virtual disks.
