I am looking for version 5.1 everywhere and unable to get one.

I converted many Physical Servers to our Vsphere ok but with this server, it said: "Error: An error occurred during reconfiguration." after transfered all data.
I attached the log file to this and hope someone can help me to resolve this.
Thanks.

Good afternoon,
I tried to virtualize a physical machine and process stay at 1% and failed.
On status I have this message : FAILED: fault.VSSSnapshotFault.summary
I don't understand why because others woorked fine. PC is on XP SP3 FR and she has a compress partition (my be at the origin of the failure).
Did you ever find this kind of message ?
hello everyone,
I'm trying to convert a physical Windows 2008 R2 (SP1) to virtual, using Vmware vCenter Converter Standalone version 5.5 build 1362012, it fails at 1% (after around 40mins) with the following message
FAILED: Unable to create a VSS snapshot of the source volume(s). Error code:
2147754758 (0x80042306).
The windows systems has some LUNS (4 x various GB size each) from the SAN, being GUID Partition Table (GPT). I went through the wizard typically, selecting "powered on machine", destination "vmware workstation or other vmware virtual machine" selected vmware player 6.0.x and the target location being a LUN with 500GB space.
Now for data to copy I selected 3 of the LUNS (on which some database is residing) and put "Min size" option (but I have tried maintaining the size for different runs) to save on space.
Looking through the logs, i see the following errors

I wonder if the converter is not able to work on GPT partitions ? (i think I've seen some community threads about this problem using v.5.1, but using 5.5 should be solved ?)
Any help is appreciated. Thanks
I am working on converting my HyperV environment to VMware and i am running into an issue with a couple host. When i try to convert them, it fails at 1% and the error i am getting is "the operation experienced a network error". I have converted other HyperV servers to the same Cluster, as well as other virtual machines from the same HyperV host without an error. For some reason, just one of the machines on the HyperV host are giving me this error. I checked for firewall rules on the individual virtual machines, but i do not understand why the virtual machine would have any affect on it since the virtual machine is powered down and all communication is going through the host HyperV.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
Eric

I am looking for a tool to allow me to hot-migrate internal Hyper-V and vSphere servers to cloud (external) vSphere hosts.
Any restrictions on this type of migration? Any data consistency issues with this solution?
Looking for options to migrate data from internal systems to external for our clients with the least amount of downtime. Any other tools that might be worthwhile looking at? Veeam Replication does not allow replication between Hyper-V and vSphere. Platespin does not appear to allow migration from Hyper-V to vSphere (only vSphere to Hyper-V).
Thanks,

Hello,
I would like to know how can i convert external usb hard drive into a virtual machine using the converter.
Thanks,
Nir.
Hi,
I would like to share with you, because I spend time to reach my goal.
OS was Windows 2000 SP4 with TSE application enable on very old HP Proliant (and an other one with original White Compaq Proliant)
1/ install Converter 3.0 on a stand alone server (with enought disk space to store larges files)
2/ from standalone server , P2V (using converter 3.0 )your SRV2K to workstation file format, store it on a share folder
3/ from vCenter Converter standAlone (v5.x) V2V your workstation file format (access it from the shared folder) to new VM format on your VCenter
Often, after P2V, system can not boot, black screen with a blikng cursor
just boot on a 'PARTITION MAGIC' like sotware (I used Acronis Disk Director) a resize a little your system disk, juste reduce 1K the size to make it moving by the tool
in case you remove a primary partition used by your hardware vendor BIOS, edit your BOOT.INI file to correct your partition number from PART 2 to PART 1
don't ask me for NT4 or NT3.51, lol
I get this error when i try to convert one of my machine. After a long while of debbuging my first issues, I am now stucked on this problem.
I have seen online that it could be a RAID system but i have no clue if my current set-up is using a raid system..
Here is an image of a df -h command
I would really appreciate to know what can be done from here and also what could possibly be my issue in this problem.
Thanks !
Hello,
I am about to reinstall and trim my current Win 7 64 system, and prior to that I want to create a virtual machine for Workstation 10 out of my current OS-installation (I want it for settings and software-specific configurations that I am bound to overlook to backup before reinstalling).
But I cannot complete the process of converting my physical machine. I only try to convert the system disk DISK0, all others are deselected. I try two scenarios and run into two different errors.
When including the whole of the system disk (an SSD) I get this error at 1%:
FAILED: The VSS snapshots cannot be stored because there is not enough space on the source volumes or because the source machine does not have any NTFS volumes. Error code:
2147754783 (0x8004231F).
All disks in my system are NTFS, so I thought it could be related to lack of space on the system reserve partition of 100 MB on that disk, so I also tried converting while excluding that partition and only including the C: partition. Then it went better at first but at 98% I run into this error:
FAILED: Unable to find the system volume, reconfiguration is not possible.
What am I doing wrong? I'd be very grateful if someone could help me with this.
I attach log packages for both scenarios.
Best regards,
Peter
Hi.
It's Centos 6.2
/home is a logical volume running ext4.
/ is also a logical volume running ext4 and it could copy that.
/ is 50GB
/home is 405GB could that be an issue ?

Hello,
I wish to convert a remote CentOS Linux physical machine to a Virtual Machine that I will store locally on my Windows PC. In the near future I would like to upload this VM to Amazon Web Services to use as a development environment.
I installed the VMware Converter Standalone (5.5.2) using the Local Installation option.
I chose the Convert Machine option and started using the wizard.
For the Source System step, under "Select source type" I chose Powered-on machine. Under "Specify the powered-on machine" I chose A remote machine and entered the correct IP and Port, user name, password, and OS Family (linux).
This is where I got stuck: under the Destination System step, I cannot choose a Destination type, so I am forced to provide VMware Infrastructure server details, but I don't know what this is referring to. It is asking for Server, User name, and Password. I don't wish to create a virtual machine on a different server, I would like to create the VM on my local hard drive. In documentation I saw online, there should be a Browse button so I can select where I want to create this VM.
I would appreciate help on this issue, and perhaps an explanation as to what is a VMware infrastructure virtual machine and how that may differ from what I want.
Attached is a screenshot of the step I am stuck on.
Thanks in advance!

Hi all,
This ones got me a little stumped, hoping someone has some more experience.
Source windows 2012 64bit (fresh deployment, test server for newbies in team)
Converter version 6
ESX 5.5
I start conversion and fails at 3%~ with error.

In worker logs all i can see is after the Worker InitialSyncFullCloneTask updates, state: 4, percentage: 3, xfer rate (Bps): 47285248 rows is as follows, no other errors - it just ends....

Hi,
I am trying to P2V a couple of Ubuntu server using the Converter Standalone client 5.1. I have tried to enable sudo to not use passwords, as described in the following KB article VMware KB: Enabling the use of a non-root user for hot cloning of a Linux source machine
I have also tried to just enable the password for the root user per this posting. Ubuntu 8.10 P2V sudo
All with no luck. I have attached the worker log and the server log. It looks like the ubutu server may be activly killing my connection. Any thoughts?
Hi,
I've downloaded and Installed Voncerter Standalone Client 4.0.0 on a Windows 2003 Machine.
I tried to convert a physical RedHat 5 Machine into an virtual Machine (esx Server 3.5).
The following error occured at 3%:
Error: Failed to clone the volume mounted on '/boot' from 'machinename'.
does anyone know what to do here?
(I didn't make any further configurations except those which are offered in the wizard)

Hello:
I am converting physical machines to VM sot hat we can consolidate our environment. The converter V5.1.0 Build1087880 fails at 71%, with a Warning:
so far, I have good progress on other physical machines except for this stubborn XP -X64 machine. We need to keep it for legacy reasons until there are replacement apps for all sw running on it (; This machine has SSD drive and no spinning HD
each time the conversion is able to start and complete the first on two drives. The GUI states its fine , but the log shows
2013-08-11T09:00:00.782-04:00 [02748 warning 'Default'] Disk number 1 has been skipped because of errors while reading partition table

When it gets to the second drive, I stops as it cant read some sector block.

I have run several apps to check and fix the D drive, but none find any issues. the XP-X64 machine has been restated after each test and re run. no issues are found on either drive
I have tried to run the converter without the D drive. It wont let me do so as it states that the D drive Is critical to the conversion and wont proceed without it
I have attached GUI screen shots and two logs files
Can anyone please help?
Is there is a way to find the root problem or proceed?
if windows cant find an issue with the D Drive why does the converter?
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!
