I recently ran VM Ware converter, to convert a server to a VM. I stored this on a network shared folder. (it's around 300gb total size)
I've then set this up as a DataStore in VMWare server (this is installed on a seperate server) Clicked on "Add virtual machine to Inventory" Completed the steps - however it says that my Virtual Machine is Invalid... Here is the contents of the VMX file:
(sorry its all on one line, it won't let me do it any other way)
