OVFTool error in deploying OVF

$
0
0

I just installed a new Vmware ESXI 6.5 and using OVFTool to deploy an OVF created using ESXI 5.5 (VM Hardware version 8)

 

I used the following command

 

ovftool --acceptAllEulas --X:logFile=c:\temp\errorvm.log --X:logLevel=verbose -ds="datastore1" -n="VTESTHOST2" --diskMode=thick F:\VMWareBackup\Vserver1.ovf vi://root:password@10.1.2.222

 

I get an error Transfer Failed

 

Here is part of the log. Take note that this command will work on an ESXI 5.5 server. Thanks for any ideas

Migrating VM from ESX 2.5 to ESX 3.01

HI,

 

If I need to migrate VMs from a ESX 2.5 server to ESX 3.01 by using Converter, what do I need to do?

 

1) Do I need to add my ESX 2.5 server to the 2.0 Virtual Center which is managing the ESX 3.01 server

2) Do i need to present all the vmdk files used by the 2.5x VM to the ESX 3.01 server??

 

Please advise

vmware converter without infrastructure server?

$
0
0

 

I am a new to VMware and am trying to create a virtual image of an old Ubuntu 7.10 laptop using VMware converter standalone 4.0.1 for the purpose of occasionally running the image in VMware player.  

 

 

I click "convert machine" tooltip, select source as "powered on machine" and have gone through all the steps to enable ssh, edit sudoers, and sudo VMware config on my machine and that gets me through the first step of the wizard.  Note that the "this local machine" radio button is grayed and I need to enter the local ip address of my laptop.

 

 

What I'm stuck on is the second step, "Specify Destination". This topic is discussed in an earlier thread, but I don't understand the answer. VMware converter asks me for the VMware Infrastructure server details, but the Server drop down list box is empty with no choices.  I don't see why I need a server since I just want to generate a single file, but the software doesn't allow me to leave this blank. I tried running the stand along converter on a windows machine on the same network (pointing to the linux laptop to convert) and I get the same behavior with this drop box being empty.

 

 

Do I need to also download VMware ESXi or Server to generate a virtual image of my laptop using VMware converter standalone? I read the documentation for those products briefly and they seem to be unrelated to the simple task that I'm trying to do which is to hot-clone a linux laptop. If I get one of these other programs, do they  then need to run on another machine on the local network? I tried installing the VMware server on another computer on my local network, but it told me I had to first uninstall the player, so I didn't go any further.

 

 

Maybe this is related to something else then - like having to enable the standalone converter server in linux? - (the about box says the standalone converter is both a client and a server)  

 

 

Please help!

"An error occurred during the conversion: 'Unknown exception'",

We're using Vcenter to P2V some of our servers. Most have worked, but the ones that fail, fail with a description that is not helpful at all.

mostRecentError = (converter.fault.CloneFault) {

--> dynamicType = <unset>,

--> faultCause = (vmodl.MethodFault) null,

--> description = "Unknown exception",

--> msg = "An error occurred during the conversion: 'Unknown exception'",

--> },

--> numConsecutiveErrors = 1,

 

We're tried several different ways of cloning including matching the hardware, not thin provisioning, setting permissions, using a domain admin account and still we get this error.

 

has anyone else had this error and figured out a solution?

 

Thanks.

Vcenter converter error "Host key can't be retrieved."

Hello friends, how are you?

I'm trying to convert a physical machine with Redhat 3 have the latest version of VMware vCenter Converter (5.5.3)

On the machine with Redhat I have the firewall disabled, the IP as the name resolves well and are within the same network as the host.

At one point, after partition and format the disk on the target server, I get the following error in the log:

 

FAILED: On a general system error occurred:

Network error. Host 192.168.0.142 key can not be retrieved. (return code 2)

 

 

 

Can someone help me?

 

 

Thanks a lot!

No matter what i do this seems to happen around %78. I've had it as high as %86 but that hasn't happened again. I'm trying this on an XP partition. The only thing i could maybe think is causing this is the fact i'm not using a 1:1 image of the size.. i'm shrinking the image down to only the size needed intending to allow it to grow.

 

 

I've attached the logs check them out see if you can help!

At a loss at this point. Brand new reformatted FAT32 external USB harddrive on an XPpro Laptop. I can succesfully R/W to this drive, create folders, etc so seems fine.

 

 

Download and run 4.0 Converter and persistantly receive the following after about 3 minutes:

 

 

Status: FAILED: Unable to create a VSS snapshot of the source volume(s). Error code:

2147754776 (0x80042318).

 

 

Simply trying to create a VM for this physical powered on machine to the USB drive which is empty

 

 

Trying to create a VM of this machine before returning it. Lots of work ahead if I can simply create this VM and run it on the new host.

 

 

Any help would be appreciated. Read the manuals and notes. Couldn't find this error code mentioned. Email to VMware - they sent me here.

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks

Hi All,

I read the same post on the forum and followed all the instruction but it couldn't work.

I used my windows XP latop that was installed the vmware converter standalone 5.0 to create a virture machine from a windows server 2000.

I tried "net share" on the windows 2000 server and the result

 

ADMINS               C:\Windows          Remote IPC

.......

 

I also tried

net use * 192.168.6.236\admin$ /u:192.168.6.236\administrator *

 

after i entered the admin password, it gave the response " The server is not configured for remote administration

 

I searched on website to turn off simple share in windows 2000 as follow, but the net use * 192.168.6.236\admin$ /u:192.168.6.236\administrator * gave the same response. :

Disable file sharing on Windows 2000
  1. Click START.
  2. Select SETTINGS.
  3. Click NETWORK AND DIAL-UP CONNECTIONS.
  4. Double click on LOCAL AREA CONNECTIONS.
  5. Click on PROPERTIES.
  6. Be sure File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Network is NOT CHECKED.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Close all windows and restart your computer.

Please advise.

 

Thanks

Kelvin.

GrubInstaller kernel too old

Hi all,

I'm trying to p2v a Suse 12.1 vm with lvm (I've found this machine as is and I cannot do a lot of thing on it).


Converter 6.1.1 is unable to convert due to "Unable to query the live Linux source machine", only version that starts is 6.0.0

At 99% I got the following error: FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'GrubInstaller::InstallGrub: /usr/lib/vmware-converter/installGrub.sh failed with return code: 127, and message: FATAL: kernel too old Error running vmware-updateGrub.sh through chroot into /mnt/p2v-src-root /usr/lib/vmware-converter/installGrub.sh: line 147: /mnt/p2v-src-root: Is a directory '


Without grub, machine is unable to start.. i've tried all suggestion in this post ubuntu p2v - converter fails generic error but without success, even changing install-grub and update-grub script in helper machine during conversion before running grub script installation.

I've also tried to restore grub using Suse rescue console with no luck.

Using Veeam Agent for Linux should be a solution, but there's btrfs (not supported).

 

Any suggestion?

 

Thanks

Hi there,

 

i'm trying to move Physical Serer (Ubuntu) to VM. when I tried connecting to Physical Server by my account (in sudo group). but i got a warning"Unable to query the live Linux source machine. Make sure that you can run sudo without entering a password when logged in to the source machine over SSH as 'my account'."

 

Please kindly help me for that problem.

How do I remove HP Network Configuration Utility

$

I am P2Ving some HP machines and have read the posts here on how to remove most of the HP components but I am stuck on how to get rid of the HP network Configuration Utility program which puts the HP Network icon in the system tray.  There is a post from Guillermo Musumeci back in 2007 that said using this command:

 

snetcfg.exe -v -u cq_cpqteam

 

should do it but I can't find snetcfg.exe on this server.

 

There is also a post from Jasemccarty in 2007 that said this keymay be the key you have to remove:

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\

{4D36E975-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\{FD0FF0D6-4876-4894-9274-258564E35C07}

 

But that key doesn't appear to be in the registry on this server.  Anyone have any ideas on how to remove this last bit of HP centric software from a P2V'd VM?

 

Anyone know why HP makes it so blasted difficult to remove their drivers and other components?

 

thanks,

 

Dan

Anyone have a script to remove all the HP/Compaq agents after conversion?

Hi,

 

With both old school P2V and the new converter tool, we have to uninstall about 10 HP agents/tools from "Add/Remove Programs", manually uninstall the HP  Network Configuration Utility, and delete two registry keys that "Add/Remove Programs" does not remove after the conversion is completed.

 

Does anyone have any sweet scripts or tools to do all this automatically?

 

Thanks

Convert virtual machine hyper-v (Windows 2012R2) to VMware

Hi

 

I have a problem when trying to use standalone vCenter Converter (6.1.1) to convert virtual machines from HYPER-V (Windows 2012R2) to vSphere 6.5.

 

When I try to convert a VM from Hyper-V I get an error when the converter tries to retrieve the hardware inventory of the selected VM.

The error is Unable to obrain the hardware inventory for select machine.

And the converter agent installed on the Hyper-v host crashes

Strangely enough, a virtual machine (30 VM on 3 hosts) managed to convert.

The vm to convert are protected by a Hyper-v cluster and are on CSV volumes.

 

Thank you for help me.
