RHEL 4 - P2V - Failed with errors.

Hi,

 

I'm trying to P2V a RHEL 4 server but I'm failing with the following error:

 

 

FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'InitrdNativePatcher failed to generate initrd image: /usr/lib/vmware-converter/initrdGenRhel.sh failed with return code: 1, and message: * /mnt/p2v-src-root/dev has 2 files No module qla2xxx_conf found for kernel 2.6.9-89.35.1.0.1.ELhugemem, aborting. ERROR:
failed running mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-89.35.1.0.1.ELhugemem.img 2.6.9-89.35.1.0.1.ELhugemem with chroot /mnt/p2v-src-root * unmounting /mnt/p2v-src-root/dev /mnt/p2v-src-root/proc and /mnt/p2v-src-root/sys '

 

The whole conversion looks like it nearly finishes but then fails with this errors.

 

The last few entries in the task list (highlights) is this:

 

- Error: Unable to reconfigure the destination virtual machine.

- Creating initial ramdisk (initrd).

- Patching the mount point entries in fstab.

- Installing the GRUB boot loader.

- Starting the reconfiguration of the destination virtual machine.

 

Has anyone here experienced a similar error previously or can point me in the right direction to try and get this resolved. I have a very long list of other RHEL 4 servers that will need to be P2V'd as well so I'd like to get this issue fixed quickly if I am going to have to deal with it everytime I try to P2V a Linux machine.

 

Thanks for the help!

 

Regards,

Hanré
