Hello forum users,
I am working for a local Service Provider which is also a Microsoft Certified Partner.
My post is related with the P2V capability removal from SCVMM 2012 R2. Given that the specific product functionality change affects not only an internal consolidation project, but also service delivery at customers who have already installed & deployed SCVMM2012 R2, i would appreciate for clarifications & responses on the following questions:
1) what is the business justification & reasoning behind this VMM functionality limitation, treated as "change by design"?
2) Which are the alternatives for those who have installed SCVMM2012 R2 and need P2V capability apart from downgrading to SCVMM 2012 SP1?
3) Is there a plan for a replacement tool or P2V "recall" on SCVMM next release or service pack?
Any clarification & response will be much appreciated.
Cheers Nick.
