move 2008 hyper-v VM around to 2012 R2 hyper-v

move 2008 hyper-v VM around to 2012 R2 hyper-v

well, like a joke, I can't do it with SCVMM 2012 R2, because V1.0 hyper-v is not support.

with errors like
-----------------
Error (12700)
VMM cannot complete the host operation on the MKCenter.yang11.homeip.net server because of the error: 'mksxp' failed to realize. (Virtual machine ID 9F24D933-A292-49C5-AB16-43F959CD29C4)

Failed to upgrade the VM version of the virtual machine mksxp: Unspecified error (0x80004005). (Virtual machine ID 9F24D933-A292-49C5-AB16-43F959CD29C4)

The VM version 1.0 of the virtual machine mksxp is not supported. (Virtual machine ID 9F24D933-A292-49C5-AB16-43F959CD29C4)
Unknown error (0x8000)

Recommended Action
Resolve the host issue and then try the operation again.
--------------------

now go back to basics,

in w2008, hyper-v manager to export the VM, then try to import to the server 2012 R2 hyper-v host, failed again,

now go back to raw basic, create VM in 2012 R2 host, in the wizard, instead of creating new vhd files, broswe to the export vhd file location. all working. you need note the VM setup details such as their original IP addresses
