Buenas a todos,

Tengo problemas al try convert Máquinas con Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 a physical Office ESXI 3.5 U3 en Máquinas.

El software used are el VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 4.0, that supone are compatible con RHEL5.

In los pasos cuando estoy present, hay a unos paso in el that the das the IP y el user/pass del ESXi, pero veo has the right information that are compatible con:

Supported VMware Infrastructure products:

  • ESX Server 3.0, 3.5

  • ESXi 3.5 integrated

  • VMware vCenter Server 2.0 or 2.5

OS wonder if any ha intentado hacer lo mismo that yo y TR ha probado con el ESXi (embedded Sin ser el) y lo ha height, igual no y compatible are yo aqui intentandolo... aunque espero Québec no ASI sea.

AA±ADO puedo conectarme desde el vCenter Converter has the Máquina física y sacar el tamano of disco, etc. y también al ESXi y ver las maquinas office as tengo, aunque cuando present will por el 1% me da UN FAILED.

  • VMWare converter standalone fails at 1%.

    Hello

    I have a problem of conversion of some machines on the subnet to another. Since then, I work at the University, here are fairly complex network infrastructure. Whenever I need an open port, I have to record a call and to wait a few days so that it can be resolved.

    I have:

    5.1 ESXi on the subnet has

    PC which is on the subnet and is able to connect to the subnet B via port 80, 445, 9089.

    Some servers that will be migrated at the subnet B.

    Now when I try to set a task with VMware converter standalone installed on PC to clone a physical host (win 2 k 3) on subnet B, I get status failed with the error message: an error occurred during conversion: 'unknown exception '.

    I found on this forum similar problem (P2V conversion fails at 1%, 'an error occurred when converting' unknown exception' ') and double-checked my logs.

    2013-08 - 01 T 11: 11:06.719 + 02:00 [warning 02020 'Default'] [, 0] NfcNewAuthdConnectionEx [NFC ERROR]: unable to connect to peer. Error: Unable to connect to server 1.2.3.4:902 (this is the IP of ESXi server)

    the problem is unclear to me. Source machine tries to connect directly to ESXi server and storage. But for me to record a call "opening port" for each server that I want to convert is a little awkward to say and I was wondering is - it possible somehow to migration through PC in a subnet that has access to powered on the source machine and the ESXi server. And these machines would not need to directly contact the ESXi Server?

    Thanks for your replies.

    Hello

    You can convert to the format of the workstation and then convert the resulting ESX VM again. If you have a machine with enough storage in the subnet B, convert, and then physically move the machine or the storage of subnet A and convert again. So, you can bypass the firewall completely.

    Go to System32\Drivers on the source server and determine whether symmpi.sys is in this folder. Otherwise, copy from a known working 2003 VM and copy also in drivers.cab in Windows\Driver Cache\i386\driver.cab

    Run the conversion again and choose the no power over the new VM and not turn off the source, in this way, you can check if the process is running. If so, great! If this isn't the case, observe the worker logs yet, find "could not find" or "reconfiguration failed with" to determine the cause of the failure.

    I have a lot of experience with this exact problem and it is almost always something to do with symmpi.sys

    Welcome to the community,

    It is most likely a problem with the virtual drive created for the converted virtual machine controller. Unless you specify the correct controller ("LSI Logic SAS' for Windows 7) type in the Converter Wizard, you can end up with an IDE controller.

  • Poor transfer rate using Converter standalone 5.0 compared to the 4.3

    I recently started using the Converter new version 5.0.0.  I did successfully more than 30 years of P2V Windows 2003 systems using version 4.3.  Immediately, I noticed two problems:

    (1) the average transfer rate went from about 100 MB/s to between 0.8 and 2 MB/s.

    (2) the process has systematically failed after completion of the c: cloning and start on the D: drive.

    I tried this on 5 different physical servers, ranging from 5 different servers host VMware ESXi 4.1 and the result was always the same.  I assumed it was a network problem or firewall and sent on a 'wild goose chase' network team for 2 days.  After that they were convinced that the physical machine being P2V was simply not sent sufficient packages, I went back and re-installed version 4.3 and restarted the P2V transfer.  This time, I received a transfer rate average of 100 Mbps (50 x faster) and the whole process completed successfully.

    Has anyone else seen a similar problem?  No possible explanation?

    The file you have to change is converter - Worker.Xml. It should be located under folder "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\VMware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone". You should find the useSsl under the nfc subkey value in Config key. If not present, you can add this value as follows:

    Save the configuration file and restart the worker VMware vCenter Converter Standalone service.
  • Converter Standalone Admin$ error

    I'm under VMware vCenter Converter Standalone (Version 4.3.0 build-292238) to my desktop (Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit).

    I am trying to convert my laptop (XP Home SP 3) to a virtual machine.

    When I start the wizard to convert, it asks me the IP of the machine and the use/pass.  As soon as I did this, it opens a dialog box alert me that software must be installed on the remote computer and asking me how I want to deal with uninstalling the app when it made the conversion.  I leave the default settings (auto uninstall when finished) and the next message I get is the following:

    "The share specified network '192.168.1.102\ADMIN$' does not exist."

    I checked that I use the good IP and username trying to connect from the Explorer.  When I check the actions on the laptop (administrative tools > computer management), I see that the ADMIN$ is missing.  All I see is a user account and share IPC$.  However, I can't find a way to create the share ADMIN$.  I tried sharing on my C drive and qualifying ADMIN$, but it gives me a message that ADMIN$ is reserved.

    Has anyone ever encountered this message?  I'm looking for even in the right direction to solve / can I change when the converter wants to watch?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    You can install converter 4.3 on the XP itself - so it should be no problem

  • Converter Standalone Agent installation failed, error code: 1601

    Hi all

    I downloaded the VMware converter tryware version, to see if we can use this tool to create virtual machines from existing industrial PC.

    We intend to make a test remote backup to a XP to a laptop machine (to keep mobile in an industrial environment)

    I installed you VMware converter and disabled the firewall on both machines.

    I also disabled the network drives that are shared on the remote computer.

    When data powered the remote computer has been entered (ip address, username, PW, BONE family) and press us Next, the pop-up appears to deploy the Agent of Standalone converter.

    If you press 'Yes' to continue, after a minute or two the following message appears:

    -Converter Standalone Agent installation failed, error code: 1601 -.

    Can someone tell me what this error code means and how I can fix this error?

    Any help will be appreciated cincerely!

    Can someone tell me what this error code means and how I can fix this error?

    Windows Installer error 1601 = The Windows Installer service could not be accessed. Contact your support team to verify that the Windows Installer service is properly registered.

    Additionally, make sure that the appropriate ports are open to allow the Windows agent to settle.

    Alternatively, you can manually install the converter on the remote system agent... and then try to restart the conversion (then there is no need to install anything).

    I'm trying to convert physical machine to virtual - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    gamarion,

    Welcome to the VMware Community Forums!

    The newspaper provided does not contain the information we need.  For your next post, please use the function "Export logs" converter (File Menu, or right-click on a task that failed) and attach it to the post office.

    I saw an error which is very generic during the wizard of converter, on networks, and just before you get to step 3.  It was with a couple Dell 1950 / 2950 s.  This occurs when the converter tries to collect information on the virtual drive of Dell Remote Access Card (DRAC).

    If you open disk management, you will see the device listed as Disk0. You must disable the VSF Dell virtual disk device in Device Manager and restart the server to resolve this problem. You can also disable the virtual floppy drive device of in the DRAC setup at boot time.

  • Restore-error vCenter Converter Standalone / Server

    Hi guys,.

    It's my first post in the VMware community and I'm looking forward to many useful discussions. Back to my problem...

    I have a serious issue in our virtual environment. Last weekend, I had to restore a virtual machine to a backup vcb. My first idea was to import the machine with the vCenter Converter 4.1.0. So far so good... I chose the .vmx of the virtual machine, which lies directly on the hard disk server vCenter ( file://hostname/e $/vm/vm.vmxUNC path) connection references: domain\administrator (access rights are set correctly)

    After a few seconds, I get the error message: cannot open the file file://hostname/e $/vm/scsi0-0-0-vm.vmdk (the name of the file is of course correctly)... ok, now I'm going to started to sweat... not only for the reason that it was Sunday morning, no, the virtual machine is our production database, and I could not restore it O.o

    Okay, the next idea was to import the machine with the vCenter Converter standalone, that is installed on my workstation. Source type is again Image backup, machine virtual file is always on
    hostname/e$/VM/VM.vmx--... we'll press next... and what past? Error: agent.internal.fault.FileOpenError.summary... have I said already, that the virtual machine is our most important server?

    2 hours later, I finished the installation of the new database server that was not the way things, I want to do...

    Monday: I couldn't believe it, the backup is corrupt... so I copied the files on my local drive on my computer and tried again... what my eyes see? It work fine? Now, I really couldn't believe it... If files is located directly on the vCenter server, it does not work and if the files are on my computer, it works correctly?

    can anyone help my in this matter? I really have no explanation for such a mistake...

    Thanks in advance for your help

    This is not the expected behavior.
