A.
Run the Import-VMIntialReplication cmdlet.

B.
Create a new virtual machine on Server2 and attach the VHD from VM1 to the new virtual machine.

C.
From Hyper-V Manager, run the Import Virtual Machine wizard.

D.
Run the Import-IscsiVirtualDisk cmdlet.

Explanation:
Starting in Windows Server 2012, you no longer need to export a virtual machine to be able to
import it. You can simply copy a virtual machine and its associated files to the new host, and then
use the Import Virtual Machine wizard to specify the location of the files. This registers the virtual
machine with Hyper-V and makes it available for use.
In addition to the wizard, the Hyper-V module for Windows PowerShell includes cmdlets for
importing virtual machines. For more information, see Import-VM

5 Comments on “You need to start VM1 on Server2

      1. Blazz says:

        Not minimum admin effort because if you have any activated software on that VM, you will be re-activating it and setting things back up. Also, running the import wizard is faster than clicking through setting up a new VM and attaching the disk, then going back and adding more processors, etc.
