Hi - I'm trying to come up with a method of getting VMs out of vCloud Director and into vCenter. To do this all I have to do is to edit the VMX file to remove the vcloud ID, this works fine but to do this I need to power the VM down, edit the VMX then power it back up, we have 1000's of VMs and do not want to power them all down! Is there a method of reloading the VMX file without downtime for the VM? I've tried a few things I've Googled but nothing has actually worked, they all involve down time.
I'm betting there is a way but I'm just not smart enough to think of it!
Thanks for any ideas.
