I am trying to import a virtual machine with PowerShell and I want to specify which folder the VHD file should be placed in. According to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh848495.aspx the -VhdDestinationPath parameter is obsolete. However, I can't seem to find what the alternative is. I know this parameter still works but it would be nice to know how it should be done.

It appears that there is no alternative to the -VhdDestinationPath
parameter at this time, but the good news is that it still works.
Another kludge would be to copy the files to their final destination, edit the VHD paths (pathname node) in the exported XML, and then call Import-VM
with the -Register
option. The -Register
option will leave the files in place.
