I love VMWare Converter, but I have not tried to go from virtual to physical. :)

Thanks,

How easy is it to go from virtual back to physical?

If you Google the subject of this email you will find a ton of resources 
complete with how-to's.  Most of them free.  One of the first hits steps you 
though scripting it hands off with VMware converter.

Look at Shadowprotect from Storagecraft.  I think they do something like that.

Good morning list members!

I have a physical server running a 3rd party accounting package.  The vendor 
does NOT support their product in a virtual environment or in a cluster at this 
time. I am certain it would run fine in a VM, but due to our support agreement, 
I must continue to run it on a single server.  (The database is run on a 
separate SQL cluster)

For backup and DR purposes, I would like to take daily P2V snapshot of this 
single server.

I am interested if anyone else is doing something similar and, if so, what you 
are using.

Thanks,

BF
