We are migrating the Virtual machines from VMware to Hyper-V. Do we have any option to change the generation of Virtual machine during the restore from VMware to Hyper-V using Commvault.

Hi Kamesh,

Unfortunately that is not possible with VMware to Hyper-V conversion.
As per documentation: “This option enables you to duplicate a VMware virtual machine for the Hyper-V environment, or to migrate a VM from VMware to Hyper-V. Conversion creates Hyper-V Generation 1 VMs”

https://documentation.commvault.com/11.40/expert/converting_from_vmware_to_hyper_v.html

Hopefully this clarifies any uncertainties.
