VMware Hyper-V conversion

Hi there!

I am trying to work out an automated conversion mechanism migrating VMware to Hyper-V. I have been told that the best way to do so would be to write a short PowerShell script referring to Microsoft's MvmcCmdlet collection. However, my experience with PowerShell is fairly limited. This is what I have come up with so far:
Code:
Import-Module   "C:\Users\XXXX\Desktop\MvmcCmdlet.psd1"   ConvertTo -VirtualHardDisk: -SourceLiteralPath   "D:\XXXX\base.vmdk"    "D:\XXXX"-VhdType FixedHardDisk -VhdFormat Vhd

The error report says "No positional parameters found". What am I doing wrong?

Appreciate your feedback!

NAME
hv_ata_pci_disengage -- Hyper-V ATA PCI Disengage driver SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in the system kernel configuration file: device hyperv DESCRIPTION
The hv_ata_pci_disengage driver prevents the native FreeBSD ATA driver from loading in the presence of Hyper-V. FreeBSD guests running on Hyper-V can take advantage of the Hyper-V Storage Virtual Consumer (hv_storvsc(4)) for using their IDE devices. Since the ATA driver serves IDE devices as well, there is a chance that the ATA driver may interfere with the operations of hv_storvsc(4). The hv_ata_pci_disengage driver avoids conflicts between the ATA driver and hv_storvsc(4) by disabling the ATA driver when the FreeBSD guest is booting. A side effect of disabling the ATA driver is that CDROM may become inoperational on FreeBSD guest partitions. If CDROM access is a must then users may use "set hw.ata.disk_enable=1" at boot time to prevent the ATA driver from being disabled. SEE ALSO
hv_netvsc(4), hv_storvsc(4), hv_utils(4), hv_vmbus(4) HISTORY
Support for hv_ata_pci_disengage first appeared in FreeBSD 10.0. The driver was developed through a joint effort between Citrix Incorpo- rated, Microsoft Corporation, and Network Appliance Incorporated. AUTHORS
FreeBSD support for hv_ata_pci_disengage was first added by Microsoft BSD Integration Services Team <bsdic@microsoft.com>. BSD
