Convert Systems Manually
You can convert systems manually if you want to specify values other than the default values for the resultant
virtual machine's properties.
The option to convert systems manually is available only if the VMware Converter Enterprise Client is installed
and enabled on your vSphere Client. You can verify whether VMware Converter Enterprise Client is installed
and enabled through the Plug-in Manager.
