Virtual Machine Performance on Hyper-V

We converted successfully a Physical Machine (windows 2000 server sp4) to a Virtual Machine ( to run on Hyper-V ) with the follow methodology:

  1. With the use of VMware Converter version 3.0 we produce an image of Physical Machine ( vmdk file)
  2. We use vmdk2Vhd tool to convert from vmdk to vhd with success
  3. We load the image to a Hyper-V WIN 2008 R2

The only problem is that the CPU Usage for this server only (we have 7 others VMs in the same Hyper-V platform) is up to 60% all day. The server has 2 sql instance, 2 partitions (C: 4.9GB with 600Mb free space and E: 62GB with 6GB free space), 2 GB RAM.

How can we find out why only this VM needs so many CPU Usage?

Thank you for your assistance.

John.

Ah-.--- 2 sql instaces on 2gb ram?

How can we find out why only this VM needs so many CPU Usage?

Ignore it is a VM. Log into the server and start finding out waht that the CPU is busy with.
