What’s new in 8.3.1

Released Feb 01, 2024

This update includes the following improvement:

You can now batch convert multiple VMware ESXi/vCenter VMs in parallel at the same time.

Simply select the VMs you want to convert and the Conversion Manager performs the conversions in batches of 10 VMs at a time, automatically selecting the next set of 10 VMs in the queue once the job is complete.

Known issues in 8.3.1

Windows VMs converted from VMware to XenServer using the XenServer Conversion Manager are incorrectly detected as Linux VMs.

To work around this issue, download and install XenServer VM Tools for Windows (available to download from the XenServer downloads page) and then reboot your VM.
