Problem with VMDK to VHD

Hi,

Anyone know of any good ways to move a VMDK to VHD? I have a few VM ESXi
servers and we're making the push to W2008. I have A 2008 DC server running
with SCVMM installed and now I have been tasked to convert a virtual server
on an ESXi server to the HyperV 2008 DC server.

I want to do this without using a third part converter because my VMWare
server is using a local datastore and its not on a SAN. I thought there was
a way to just do a V to V conversion on it using SCVMM but no luck. I also
tried using P to V but it failed.

Any help would be appreciated.

TIA!

conversion.
