I have just started playing around with Vmware sphere and have the hypervisor OS installed on a spare HP ProLiant DL360 G4.
I have created a test virtual machine running Ubuntu which has worked well.
As a test project I wanted to convert a powered on server running Windows Server 2008 64bit into a virtual machine. As soon as I ran the Vmware Go software to start the conversion it became apparent that I cannot run 64bit guest OS's on that particular server.
So, is there a way of migrating 64bit to 32bit during the conversion?
