I have a customer with an old Windows Server 2012 with hyper v cluster configured for 2 nodes. One node died completely. I have 2 new HP proliant 360 Gen10 running Server 2022 DC and a big SAN, and I am trying to figure out the best way to move over the 6 VMs on the existing host. I’m new to this process but it seems like the host OSes must match for me to move the old VMs over. Is the best way to just export a Datto backup of the VMs to the new cluster? Any way to do this live? Any advice I’d appreciate and apologies if I wasn’t clear at all.

    Thank you! I am hoping this works but it is a 10 year gap between the 2 hosts so I was not sure, but I can at least give it a try.
