Paragon Migration Suite Server - migration specialist for Windows corporate environments

Paragon Migration Suite for Server helps to migrate a running Windows server to a physical or virtual environment at your choice with minimal cost and effort.

Key features and Benefits

• Allows P2V, P2V Restore, P2P migration for Windows 2000 and later platforms
• Makes OS start up after unsuccessful migration with 3rd party tools (P2V Adjust OS, P2P Adjust OS)
• Advanced WinPE 3.0 bootable environment to accomplish operations without the software installation. It supports a wide range of hardware configurations with the option to add drivers for specific hardware on-the-fly
• Helps to upgrade storages with minimal impact on business activities (Clone HDD/Partition)
• Online processing of locked (in-use) hard disks with MS VSS or Paragon Hot Processing enables to migrate without rebooting Windows and interrupting its work
• Automatic partition alignment* allows to get the most of physical and virtual data storages during migration
• Basic disaster recovery functions (backup to local, external storages, or network shares) provide for data safety
• Smart Driver Injector makes the process of adding new drivers smooth and easy
• Time-proved drive partitioning facilities for fast storage initialization
• Boot problems correction (Windows system registry modification, MBR and BCD correction, etc.

Wide range of hardware and software support

Express Launcher provides quick and easy access to wizards and utilities that we consider worth using on a regular basis. With its help you can also start up the traditional launcher, the help system or go to the program’s home page.	Main Launcher helps to run wizards and dialogs, to specify program settings, to visualize the operating environment and the hard disk configuration.
Improved P2P Adjust OS Wizard enables to migrate Windows OS to a different hardware platform. It reports on devices without drivers; searches for and installs lacking drivers from built-in Windows repositories; notifies about boot critical devices without drivers (HDD/RAID controllers, etc.); names all devices according to their model description, determines and install drivers for physically connected NICs.	Partition List is another helpful tool that enables you to get a clear-cut picture of the current state of the system hard disks/partitions. Partitions are sorted according to their starting position. For every item of the list there is the possibility to call the context-sensitive popup menu with available operations.
More flexibility for online data processing techniques with an easier configuration for both Paragon Hot Processing and Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (MS VSS)	Improved P2V Copy Wizard enables to create and properly configure virtual machines; employ MS VSS to synchronously migrate from several hard disks to ensure data consistency during online migration of a system, which seats on several partitions or hard disks.
Improved P2V Restore Wizard helps to restore any Windows since XP that was backed up with a Paragon disaster recovery tool directly to a virtual machine of one of the supported virtualization vendors.	Copy Hard Disk Wizard helps to clone a hard disk of any file system. During the process, the program moves controlling records of used partitioning scheme, the bootstrap code and all on-disk partitions with proportional resize according to the target disk's capacity.
