Hi all,
I would like to know how to convert the Virtual machine from HyperV server to VMware esxi using to Vcenter converter tool without choosing the remote conversion.
I have tried the option but i got an error,
Note: This is the newer version of Vcenter converter tools.
Is there any pre-requisites configuration is available in Hyper V or ESXi server?
Please give me the solution to resolve the issue.
Thanks in advance

Arunkumar

Vmware converter standalone 6
esxi 5.5 update 2
converter standalone usessl already changed to false, still encounter the same issue.
strangely, this is consistenly only happen with IBM x3650 M2 as the source.
I Just finished a new P2V and the vm boots normally, but it will not respond to Ctrl Alt Insert or Del. All other VMs are working normally.
Hi everyone,
Wierd question, but does anyone have the installer for VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 4.0? If so, could you send me a link for it? Or maybe upload to https://filedump.zitcom.dk and post the link.
A salute to the forum, a very simple question. I need to virtualize a Windows Server 2003 R2 and want to know if there are particular problems or incompatibilities. Thank you.
I converta physical machinen OS version CentOS 6.664bit , Converter Standalone 6.1.1 ,In the process physical switch all uplink ports OutUti very more.

I will wait for your reply.
Thank you.
Hi guys and gals,
We have a physical machine that runs some software the company needs 24/7 and we need to make a backup from. It is on dated hardware and if it ever dies we'll need the ability to run it as a VM temporarily until a replacement box arrives and be set up.
I need to make a VMWare ESXi 5.5 compatible image of the physical machine, but save it direct onto a network share or USB drive for storage. I don't see a way of doing this without involving the ESXi server which I've been asked to avoid by superiors. This is essentially a short term disaster recovery scenario for when we need the image, just in case.
Can this be done?
Cheers.
I'm trying to use Vmware Converter Standalone 6.0.0 build 2716716 to convert a VM on an ESX6 server. it worked perfectly fine in the past. All of a sudden I'm getting an error at the very end of the conversion:
FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion:
'The session does not have the required permissions'
and in the log highlights:
Error: Unable to clone disk [DATASTORENAME] path/vmname.vmdk on the virtual machine 'Vm Name'.
Any idea? I did recently install Veeam backup & replication on the same client machine Converter is running on. Veeam runs fine.
Thanks for any help.
I can't believe there is any kind of network issue because all of my VM's are working and on the network.
I am running version 6.1.1 and have tried three different ESXi servers. Two are 5.5 and one is 6.0 servers and they all fail. I have also tried this on another PC that fails.
I have also tried different VM's to import. I took one of the VM's and converted it on my PC from one drive to another drive and that works telling me the VM isn't the issue.
I found one article on the web from VMware Converter: "The operation experienced a network error" - discussing the network error issue but said it was something else that he got around.
The other strange thing it does, the progress bar gets to 50% and then speeds up to 98% and then goes back to 6% where it fails.
I have attached the log files from one of the tests.
Thanks

Hello,
I post here after one day of search all in internet.
I have an instance in amazon like and I try it to convert to vmware.
I test with a dd and qemu -> not working
And finally I try with vmware converter.
The operation are successfull after some hours and the VM are in vcenter.
When I boot the vm it's load correctly the kernel file but it stop after 5 seconds and vm freeze :
"Random: nonblocking pool is initialized"
I try to go in rescue mode for do an grub2-mkconfig.
I try also to install open-vm-tools and to add nomodeset to the boot line.
If you have some idea or tips for have more verbose thank you,
Hi - I have gone thru the many many post for this same issue but none of the suggestions have provided a solution...
Cloning a Physical Windows 8.1 PC to create an image on the source PC.
Converter Version is 5.5.3
UAC is disabled,
Both a Domain admin account and local admin account has been tried.
Converter is being been launched with 'Run as Administrator'
Converter has been uninstalled and reinstalled (Several times)
VMware services have been stopped and started.
GUI Log reports '2016-03-02T14:52:51.510+11:00 [03152 error 'wizardController'] Must be administrator to access physical computer'
Both accounts tried are in the administrator group.
Source Physical PC has been rebooted and started using both types of admin accounts and each connection scenarios tried.
Converter continues to report same Permission Denied error.
I am using the latest version of converter (6.1.1). The host machine is a cPanel box running CentOS 7.
A brief overview of the logs shows that it appears to be unable to determine if the system is 32 or 64 bit, which is weird to me.
Root has the right shell, and can login via the method I am using (password). TMP is also writable and I've run the program as Administrator.
Hi,
Using VMware Standalone Converter in an effort to clone some physical machines. The physical machines I wish to clone are running Windows XP (don't ask! ) and have two physical hard drives:
I want the destination VM's to have the identical two hard drives but cannot figure out how to configure the settings. From the way it looks both physical disks on the source machine will be converted to a single virtual disk on the destination VM, or am I misunderstanding?
Also, as you can see in the screen shot above, I am receiving a warning in the "Advanced options" section referring to customizing the guest OS - the warning message at the top of the tool reads "Warning: Unable to locate the required Sysprep files. Upload them under 'C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone\sysprep\xp' on the Converter Server machine. See 'Help' for more details."
If I run sysprep on the source machine and then upload the resulting file will that then create the two virtual disks corresponding to the two physical disks on the source machine?
If not, is there another tool or method I can use to P2V the source computers?
Thanks!!!

So maybe someone can give some information or trick
Thank in advance
I am trying to convert my laptop to a virtual machine so i can run it on another computer. At about 98% it fails.
Error: An error occurred during reconfiguration.

Hello,
I am facing an issue with P2V cloning from xen centos5. i know that xen is not vmware compatible so what are my options?
Thank you for help
Just did a migration of Centos 7 host, and after conversion tools such as ping are missing their filesystem capabilities. It appears that whatever copy process is being used, does not preserve the capabilities attributes of files on the destination system. This is a problem... Many binaries on rhel7 / centos7 that used to be SetUID/SetGID now use capabilities to elevate privileges. Is this a bug? Is there a way to force converter to preserve FS capabilities during a conversion?
I try to convert 2003 SP2 32 bit standart edition using vmware converter 6.0
when convert task is 98% , windows reboot and vmware converter 6.0 not show any error.

vCenter Converter Standaloneを使用して仮想マシンのV2Vを実施しましたが、以下のエラーにより失敗しました。
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
44%で停止している状況です。
以下の対策は実施してみました。
・SSL暗号化を無効化(converter-worker.xmlを編集)
・移行対象のWindows仮想マシンのファイアウォール無効化
何か情報がありましたら教えていただけると幸いです。
何卒、よろしくお願い致します。
