Migration to Windows 8.1 seems not feasible.
Migration to Windows 8.1 seems not feasible.
So, I had learned some brief details about virtualization and it's configuration file, one of them in particular that piqued my interests was the fact I can spoof the UUID number. What I am getting at is I would like to migrate the Windows 8.1 os to a qcow2 disk and spoof the appropriate IDs, UUID and the Storage device SN as well (if possible.) However, there's this little splinter that's probing the back of my mind about it, as good as it sounds, there's always a catch with this. I wonder if any can give me any extra details, because I do want to be well-informed about this plan. Same goes for the Windows 7 Pro and Windows 7 Home drives as well so that I have a total of 6 windows vms. two of which have an install disc with license keys respectively, the other four being from two laptops and two desktops (pre-built.) My idea is put the drives to good use, os included. Thank you in advance!
You're wondering if it's possible to move an entire operating system onto a virtual machine, but within certain constraints. That's achievable, though with some limitations.
Just want to confirm I'm fully prepared for this detailed assignment.
The tool is designed specifically for VMWare and functions exceptionally well. However, it’s limited to that platform only, and the OS license must not be an OEM product.
