I need to move an ubuntu server to a virtual server and everything on it with users, etc. The most logical way would be to move the entire HDD to an virtual disk on VMWare ESXi but how would I do that? Exporting all data, all userdata, configurations, etc seems like an unnecessary hassle. Could anyone guide me in the right direction?

You need the VMWare Converter Standalone (i.e. free) version.
