vCenter Converter 6.6 closes important gaps from functional perspective, by finally providing the capability to convert KVM-based workloads, including AHV and RHV formats. We are also covering the support for RHEL 8 & 9 as source OS, as well as latest Ubuntu versions: 22.04 and 20.04.
The new Beta release comes with slightly updated look and feel, part of the ongoing process for modernization of the user interface.
For those who have no experience with this product, the vCenter Converter is a freeware standalone tool providing the possibility to convert virtual workloads running on third-party hypervisors and powered-on physical machines into VMware virtual machines. The upcoming version of the vCenter Converter supports conversion of workloads based on MS Hyper-V, AWS EC2, Nutanix AHV, Red Hat RHV and native KVM. We also enable customers to convert between VMware virtual formats (Workstation, Fusion) and reconfigure VMware virtual machines. The vCenter Converter supports virtual workloads running on Windows, Linux Ubuntu, CentOS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Stay tuned for the General Availability of version 6.6.
