Latest Version of vConverter Supports Hyper-V
Vizioncore announces general availability of its upgraded conversion tool, which now works within either Hyper-V or VMware environments.
Virtualization data protection and management solution innovator Vizioncore Inc. has announced the general availability of the latest vConverter version. The new vConverter supports Microsoft Hyper-V systems in addition to VMware envi
ronments.
vConverter enables conversion of physical systems into virtual images, conversion of virtual images among virtual server platforms, and conversion of virtual images into physical systems.
The latest version of vConverter enables the conversion of physical systems into an image file on virtual servers within either Hyper-V or VMware environments as well as within mixed environments. Administrators can also convert virtual machines between VMware and Hyper-V systems.
The launch of the latest vConverter version corresponds with a Vizioncore “Help Define P2V2P Best Practices” promotion for system administrators and VARs. Read more about that promotion here.
The new virtual-to-physical recovery capability of vConverter enables administrators to restore virtual images onto physical systems. This means that physical systems can be converted, protected, replicated, and recovered on virtual systems with the option to recover the images back to physical systems.
“Administrators managing both Hyper-V and VMware platforms can now safeguard physical systems and data within their virtual infrastructure by deploying just one solution,” explains Mike Coffman, vice president of server virtualization products at Quest Software, parent company of Vizioncore. “This latest version of vConverter is the first solution in our data protection portfolio to support Hyper-V.”

- Ability to convert physical systems into virtual machines
- Ability to convert VM images between VMware and Hyper-V platforms
- Recovery of physical systems from virtual machine images
- Ability to convert, replicate, and recover physical systems on virtual systems
- Application of image-based data protection to physical systems
- Unified protection and recovery of physical and virtual systems
- Leveraged virtual infrastructures for physical data protection
- Flexible adoption of strategies for virtual servers
