Need a new Backup target for an office. I think an old Dell R510 laying around with 12 drives would be perfect.

On a call with VMWare support.
Yikes! What's broken?
The Standalone Converter. Nothing affecting production but we can’t move VMs between our two environments without it.

Getting ready to head out for the evening, first half of the day went by so quick, then the second half just drug along.
Hope you guys and gals have a great Evening! - 
Busy day, handled the user end of that Rocket migration. And built a new KVM server.

Brace yourself for many threads on how to move Hyper-V workloads to KVM.

Convert .VHDX to .qcow2- 
Copy the .VHDX to your Fedora host.
 - 
Check the .VHDX image for errors:
qemu-img check -r all /path/to/vmimage.VHDX - 
Run the command to convert the .VHDX to .qcow2:
qemu-img convert -O qcow2 vmimage.vhdx /path/to/vmimage.qcow2 
Create your VM using the new .qcow2 image.
You can convert to/from qcow2, vhdx, and more.

Firmware updated last weekish, but the controller hasn't updated in a while.
They are about to release the next one though. Apparently rebranding it a bit also.

@eddiejennings have you tired veeam? I've used it to "migrate" a few VMs between ESXi hosts
