vmware best practice for copy a virtual machine

Hello

 

I am new to vm, need advice on copying a vm to another physical server.

 

Our admin quit, I am now trying to pick up the pieces.

 

Old server has ESX 4.1 new server has 5.1x

 

On the 4.1 server it seems to be missing tabs, and icons. There is no config tab, and under home, there seems to be missing icons.

 

Could this ESX 4.1 machine be manager by another server ?

 

The 4.1 server is a live domain controller, the server is old and failing. I want to copy this to a new server without shuting the 4.1 vm  server down, is this possible ?

 

Thanks for any info.
