Dear All, I need your help as I have an urgent requirement in my organization to migrate a VM on the Proxmox hypervisor to the VMware vSphere hypervisor. Could you please advise if you have an approach which was applied before to do the same?

I've read several threads about different problems with Windows server migrations and am hoping to get pointers here. I'm pretty sure my problems are directly related to hard drive choices as I'm getting the bluescreen STOP 0X0000007B error mentioned in these forums as well as Microsoft Technet...
