Well the VMware Website was back to normal and I downloaded ESXi 4.
I have since installed ESXi on the new machine and that has gone fine.
I was able to convert our Linux machine over to a VMware image with little problems, it does require a bit of clean-up to remove VMware Server off it and also some of the HP management agents etc that are left over.
The harder part was trying to convert my physical disk image over to a VMware image. I guess it came back to bite me. We went with a Physical disk setup which was a bitch to setup to get better performance, however I don't think it should be too bad in the current setup.
I was able to ghost and convert the image over to an ESXi format so it's happy now.
I'll try and work on getting the VM's to talk to each other and clean-up the Linux VM this evening and see how we go.
