Moving a VM from Workstation to ESXI is very straightforward. Here in this case I’m moving a Windows 10×64 from VMware WorkstationPro – 15.1.0 to ESXi 6.7.0. The only thing that we need to care about is compatibility, here is the link for the compatibility check.
- Connect to the ESXI server from the workstation.
- Check and alter the hardware compatibility. In this case, I’m choosing compatibility as ESXI 6.5 as Workstation 15 is not compatible with ESXI 6.7.0.
- Upload the workstation to ESXI.
- Power on the VM in ESXI.
