Re: Switching users to new Pool pointing to a new Image

1:  Yes..  The only time I think that wouldn't be true is if your new Parent VM was a different OS than what the persistent disk was created on

2:  detach and attach would be the way to handle that

3:  Not sure maybe Windows Easy Transfer or some type of migration tool.
