Tib To Vhd Converter Tool VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 6.1 Release Notes; CONTACT SALES GET SUPPORT ABOUT VMWARE CAREERS I am trying to take a Acronis TIB Backup and Convert it to a VHD. How to Convert a VHD or VMDK File to TIBAcronis True. VMware Converter can take an Acronis True Image Backup (.tib) and convert that in to a vm.

What do you mean 'make remote images'? Converter simply reads a disk and config file and deploys the VM. Or it takes a VM and converts it to an appliance (still a disk and config file).

The power of Converter is in running a P2V. You can run a P2V inside of a VM with one tool and then create or deploy a vm from that with another. For example - you could do a P2V using VMware converter to OVF and then use Citrix Kensho to deploy that OVF to Hyper-V or XenConvert 2.x to deploy to XenServer. It is just an issue of knowing the possible combinations.

Brian Ehlert (hopefully you have found this useful). Pardon my ignorance, but what is the source of a.TIB? And, how was this file created?

What is the OS installed in the image? There are many variables as to why a disk image might not boot.

For example, the image could be just that, an image of the file system, but lacking any MBR and root record information. Thus, unbootable. The Windows Backup VHD works like this - it is not intended to be bootable and is deliberately incomplete.

Please provide as much detail as possible. Brian Ehlert (hopefully you have found this useful). Thanks for the extra detail, it is all relevant. XP, it sounds like this is pretty old hardware.

Did you perform an Acronis restore into a VM (like you would deploying the image to hardware) or did you attempt to do a binary conversion of hte True Image file? (I am guessing that the Acronis restore might have better luck). And, since this is XP you might run into issues with the boot hardware. The physical machine, what controller is boot disk on? If it is SCSI you will have problems - as you need to convert to IDE. If you have other samples, then you either have something different with the way this image was taken, corruption, or something special with the hardware that is interfearing with the restore. Is there anything different between this machine and the other two?
