Deployment of senhasegura Image File to HYPER-V Format

Import virtual machine files with a .OVA senhasegura application on Microsoft Windows Server servers that use the Hyper-V role.

To perform a senhasegura virtual machine import, the following steps must be performed:

senhasegura Virtual Machine Importation​

  • Import senhasegura OVA on Virtualbox or Vmware;

  • Export a virtual machine on OVF format;

  • In this process, a virtual hard hard disc file will be extracted. This file has a VMDK format. However, to a virtual machine be created on Hyper-V, should be used the VHD or VHDx format.;

Virtual Machine Image File Conversion​

  1. Download the Microsoft Virtual Machine Convert;

  2. Import the converter in PowerShell;

  3. Execute the following commands on PowerShell to load the Windows conversion module;

    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Import-Module 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Virtual Machine Converter\MvmcCmdlet.psd1'

  4. Convert the file from .vmdk format to .vhdx through the following command;

    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> ConvertTo-MvmcVirtualHardDisk -SourceLiteralPath d:\ss-andrew-v3-24042017 \ss-andrew-v3-24042017-disk1.vmdk -VhdType DynamicHardDisk -VhdFormat vhdx -destination d:\ss-andrew-v3-24042017

    The following message will be displayed:

    Destination
    -----------
    d:\ss-andrew-v3-24042017\ss-andrew-v3-24042017-disk1.vhdx
    Source
    ------
    d:\ss-andrew-v3-24042017\ss-andrew-v3-24042017-disk1.vmdk

senhasegura Virtual Machine Creation and Initialization​

On Hyper-V, create a virtual machine and indicate the disc on .vhdx format.

Start the senhasegura virtual machine on the Hyper-V environment.
