Physical to Virtual Conversion for Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition

hyper-vphysical-to-virtualwindows-server-2003

I have a physical Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition server that I would like to convert into a virtual machine on my Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V Server. Has anyone had any luck creating a Hypver V VHD from an exisiting Physical Windows 2003 server? What steps have you taken to convert the physical machine to a VHD?

I believe the official tool for this is SCVMM. You can get the R2 RC free here:

I personally haven't used this, but from what I understand it allows P2V conversions.
