But as you well know, the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone app can only perform P2V hot cloning. This would leave me with a hard drive with a XP installation ready to generate new IDs the next time it was powered on. ![]() The best method would be to unregister the ZENworks object, uninstall the Adaptive Agent, pull it off the network, reinstall the Adaptive Agent, and then sysprep -reseal -shutdown the machine. After weighing my options, I decided that it wouldn’t be practical to hot clone the physical machine. ![]() I needed to convert a physical Windows XP Professional machine running ZENworks into a VMware virtual machine, but only after removing the unique identifiers like the Windows’ SID and ZENworks’ GUID, so that I could later make multiple copies of the VM without them all writing to the same ZENworks object.
