In my experience, VMware Converter doesn't work on Linux physical machines.
What I have used in the past is a VMware "Cold Clone" boot disk that I
could boot the physical server from and do a migration offline. VMware
doesn't distribute that tool any more, but if you'll email me off-list,
I might be able to tell you where you can get that ISO file.
I've also used the instructions in the following article to "Virtualize
a Server with Minimal Downtime". Those instructions are a little
involved, but the actual server downtime is minimal.
So for giggles, I just went to vShere and tried to boot the "failed" VM
and it booted. Gonna look it over and see what I learn...
