A company is decommissioning a physical server that runs a legacy application. The administrator needs to preserve the server for potential future use, but the physical hardware is failing. The administrator wants to create a VM that can be stored offline and later powered on if needed. The server has a large amount of data and the conversion must be completed within a maintenance window. What should the administrator use?

vCenter Converter to perform a P2V conversion and store the resulting VM offline

A backup of the physical server to a file and restore it later

vSphere Replication to replicate the physical server to a VM

vSphere vMotion to migrate the physical server to a VM
