Very easy P2V conversion indeed.
Are you the vmware admin ?

This type of job is way above your pay grade..
NEVER practice on a production server, build something throw away and get your plan down, before attempting this task...
As Yoda says Do or do not, there is no try...
Break a production server and your life gets very interesting, very quickly...
