Migrating to another virtual machine program can be intimidating. if
you already have your virtual machines set up they way you like them,
you don’t necessarily have to install them from scratch – you can
migrate your existing virtual machines.
VirtualBox and VMware use different virtual machine formats, but each
supports the standard Open Virtualization Format. Convert your existing
virtual machine to OVF or OVA and you’ll be able to import it into
another virtual machine program.
Unfortunately, this may not always work perfectly, as VirtualBox and
VMware both seem to use slightly different OVA/OVF implementations that
aren’t entirely compatible. If this doesn’t work, you may want to
reinstall your virtual machine’s guest operating system from scratch.
