Moving and Sharing Virtual 
Machines
The following sections provide information on how to move your virtual machines 
from one host to another, or elsewhere on the same host, plus recommendations on 
how to share virtual machines with other users:
Note:  When you move a virtual machine to a new host computer or to a different 
directory on the same host computer — or when you rename a directory in the path 
to the virtual machine’s configuration file — VMware GSX Server generates a different 
MAC address for each virtual Ethernet adapter (unless you specified the MAC address 
manually). For additional information, see 
 in thVMware GSX Server Virtual Machine Guide.
For information about moving virtual machines between VMware products, see the 
VMware Virtual Machine Mobility Planning Guide on the VMware Web site.
