Is there any way to migrate a VM running in VMware ESXI to AHV without using Nutanix Move?  What about if the client has the VM files( vmx, vmdk, etc ) in his external storage device and want to import into AHV?

Hi @LuisC Nutanix move is the cleanest way to migrate from ESXi to AHV. Move works just fine even though the source VMs are hosted in external storage. 

Please refer to our move user guide here: Move User Guide

If you dont have access to the hosts to be able to run move you can allways run my ”hack” using VMware P2V: Nutanix P2V using VMware Converter.

It comes with absolute no guarantee, but i have used it succesfully many times :)
