December 1, 201510 yr I'm giving serious consideration to moving my unRAID server off of VM and going bare metal to ensure it's getting the full use of all my Xeon D-1540 cores (Plex hammers my CPU). However I run a bunch of Windows VM's (2-3 Win8/10 VMs, and 2 2012R2 VMs). Is there an easy way for me to move these VM's over to KVM without having to reconfigure everything? Also, how does networking work with KVM? I don't see any options to set the VLANs for the given VMs anywhere within unRAID.
December 2, 201510 yr Yes, search my threads there is one for moving windows 8.1 from esxi to kvm. I'm on my phone right now so it is hard to post a direct link. One thing you need to do is Uninstall the VMware tools. Once you Uninstall the tools you uses the comand to convert the vmdk to a raw image file and follow the wiki for converting a physical windows machine to kvm.
