What to do next
You can move source volumes to the newly created virtual disk.
Move a Source Volume to a Target Virtual Disk
Converter Standalone copies all source volumes to one target virtual disk. You can move source volumes to
newly created target disks.
This option is not supported for Linux hosts. It is only available for sources and destinations that allow volume-
based cloning.
You cannot move active or system volumes.
Prerequisites
Select a valid source and a valid destination and go to the View/Edit Options page.
Procedure
1 On the View/Edit Options page, click Data to copy in the left pane.
2 From the Data copy type drop-down menu, select Select volumes to copy and click Advanced.
3 (Optional) On the Target Layout tab, create a new target disk.
4 Select a volume to move and click Move Up or Move Down until it reaches the destination target disk.
The volumes you selected are saved to the corresponding destination virtual disks.
Modify the Settings in the Source Volumes List
During volume-based cloning, you can modify the layout of source volumes on the destination datastore. In
the source volumes list, you can select which volumes to copy to the destination virtual machine and control
their size on the destination datastore.
Volume-based cloning depends on the operating system of the host machine. It is not supported for Linux
hosts. It is also the only possible cloning type for physical machine sources.

Procedure
