Is it possible to use transporter to create an image from a Widows 2003 server? Has anyone tried this? Is there any danger to the server itself if one were to attempt this?
You can use transporter for migrating Windows 2003
Transporter is just software, installed on Windows, you can later delete it.
I recommend to use Windows Transporter and perform on server migration, for example on external disk, later you can copy resulting VM to Mac
You can download Windows Transporter version from http://www.parallels.com/en/download/file/v3/en/GA/Parallels-Tsp-3.0.1456-Win.exe
