RedHat P2V failed 99% - Grub problem

I seem to have a problem (hot-clone), conversion of a RedHat ES 3 box to our virtual machine environment using the stand-alone converter.

I constantly receive 99% conversion how I get: error: impossible to reconfigure the virtual target computer.

Read the newspaper, I noticed there seems to be a problem with GRUB?

  • P2V on Redhat 8 failing miserably

    Hello

    I was responsible for the conversion of a v8 box antique intact Red Hat in a virtual machine.  I had no problem of conversion of a series of boxes of SUSA before but it continues to refer to me.  The question I wonder is am I flogging a dead horse?  I know that this version is not supported, but is it because this will only work with success as a virtual machine or because nobody really wants to support older versions of LINUX?

    Thanks in advance for any help

    /StuZ

    Welcome to the forum.

    8 HR is not supported the cause is an old distro.

    But it can work in an environment virtual (there are only a few problems with clock... screw).

    But to convert it, do it manually (creating a VM, the boot with a CD live, netcat allows to copy all the data, change the configurare hardware and install the VMware Tools), or try to find 3rd party tool.

    PS: thread placed in the converter box.

    Anyone know what is happening here? I checked the configuration of sshd source machine, everything looks ok Protocol 2 only.

    I have attached the log converter with more information assistance.

    Thank you

    S

    HM, looking more carefully at the newspaper these lines are strange:

    --> tar:. / var/log/memcached.log: invalid rare archives members

    --> tar:. / var/log/memcached.log: file changed as we read it

    I do not have this file in my RHEL5, but my guess is tar fails because of this. Other messages of tar are ignoring sockets unix which is not a problem. So, do you have idea what this file is, it is currently in use, can you stop the creative process or just restart with no logging at the moment of conversion?

  • How can I fix this Shutdwn FATALE: WUCheckForUpdatesAtShutdown failed and WUAutoUpdateAtShutdown problem?

    Recently, I checked WindowsUpdate.log my computer, I have continued to see the next line of the FATAL error writing here whenever I start the computer and about to close. He said something like this:

    I don't know what the problem with my computer, the newspaper of keep generating these FATAL errors each and every time. I'm sorry that I can't get anything else in the newspaper other than that because I didn't know that old newspapers have been removed by the cleaner software.

    So far, here are the problems I've met so far in my computer with this FATAL, but I don't know if it actually caused that:

    • My browser was arrested by force when I clicked on a link. It happens rarely and on some microsoft sites.
    • It is difficult to describe it. Once in a while, my computer will boot in a strange pattern, unless I'm defragging my computer. Caps/number on the keypad lock remains light throughout the loading screen until half out of the light, the letters of words like "press ESC to go to config" came out slowly and one by one. Usually the lock of the Caps/number will blink for some time and remain extinguished after the initialization of the operating system.

    These are the things that I have tried or done to try to solve the problem but until now none of them work:

    • I have manually update Windows and installed the SP3 for my XP, thinking he's going to replace corrupted files.
    • I have stop/restart automatic update and the PIECES in the service.msc window services. Whatever it is, there's always this error FATAL so I decided to disable both services at the moment.
    • I tried to use a MS-DOS batch file called WUFix.bat that someone provided to fix my problem, WindowsUpdate.log still gives the same once I used it and restart my computer later.
    • I thought that the c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll file was corrupted so I decided to replace it with a new one, but still nothing changes.

    I think it's all the details I gave to my problem, I tried not to do anything else major other I listed out above. I still think that's the problem with the file since the FATAL c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll came right after this and it has to do with Windows updates and everything. This error has been there for a few weeks and even if there is no critical errors have occurred to date, it is still bugging me.

    If there is no solution that I can do to solve this problem, I would be happy if you can explain step by step. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you

    EDIT: I do not understand why this is posted in the Windows 7 forum when I chose Windows XP. Anyway, hope someone can help me with this.

    Does this mean I should keep the auto update turned on all the time in order to avoid the error reappear?

  • vRealize 7 - NSX Automation deployments fail due to problems of certificate with vRealize Orchestrator

    Hello community,

    After you have installed the latest version of vRA, vRO, and NSX I run questions when you apply components that use components of the NSX. First of all: details of the version:

    -vRA: 7.0.0 (build 3292778)

    -vRO: 7.0.0.16989 (build 331003)

    -NSX: 6.2.1 (build 3300239)

    vRO plugin versions are delivered with the vRO version listed above with the exception of the plugin NSX, which has been updated to the latest version (1.0.3 published on 17.12.15).

    In the configured tenant vRO is configured as endpoint. I can check the data collection is running and working. I can see the plugin NSX for vRO runs the workflow 'create endpoint NSX' from time to time using the configured user of vRA VRO.

    In the configured tenant vRO is thus configured as server default for ASD vRO. Connection test is successful. When you save the config I'm prompted to approve the vRO certificate, which I confirm. Note that the thumbprint specified matches the footprint of the vRO certificate that I get during the visit of the vRO system on https://vro:8281. I am able to navigate the vRO vRA designer workflows, therefore: connection seems established.

    Within vRO the vRA COFFEE and plug-ins IAAS have been saved successfully. I am able to browse the inventory of plugin for both plugins.

    To solve the problem, I created a new unified plan within the design section of vRA with the following configuration:

    -Transport box: my area of transport configured NSX (checked: manual creation on this area using NSX works very well)

    -Routed res pol. Bridge: my reference for the dash cluster to use Pol

    -The only component dragged to canvas is a 'network and safety'-> 'On-Demand NAT Network' that uses a profile preset 1-to-many network as is "Parent network profile" without manual modification.

    -Note that, although there is a plan very simple example to illustrate the problem, it happens with any model that I have set up if any component is confgured requiring the NSX plugin for vRO.

    "Whenever I ask this plan, the request fails with the error message:" ","application [fa1e0689-0d06-4308-a914-e498c0d1fd99]: 404 not found "

    Looking in vCenter, NSX and vRO I can check that nothing is really trigged when you ask for the action plan.

    Consider the vRA /storage/log/vmware/vcac/catalina.log becomes very visible:

    com.vmware.vcac.iaas.vco.network.helper.VcoEndpointSelector.isEndpointAlive:88 -
    vRealize Orchestrator endpoint with url [https://s00-vro.my.domain:8281/vco] is not alive. 
    Exception message:> [Host name 's00-vro.my.domain' does not match the certificate subject provided by the peer (CN=s00-vro.my.domain, OU=VMware, O=My Company, C=DE)]
    
    com.vmware.vcac.iaas.vco.network.helper.VcoEndpointSelector.getFirstAliveEndpointByPriority:200
    - vRealize Orchestrator endpoint [https://s00-vro.my.domain:8281/vco] with priority 1 is not alive. Skipping.
    
    org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.method.annotation.ExceptionHandlerExceptionResolv
    er.logException:189 - Handler execution resulted in exception: Endpoint not found. There are no vRealize Orchestrator endpoints that are alive.
    
    com.vmware.vcac.platform.service.rest.resolver.ApplicationExceptionHandler.handleHttpStatusCodeException:673 - 404 Not Found
    org.springframework.web.client.HttpClientErrorException: 404 Not Found
    ...
    ...
    ...
    
    

    Please note that I double checked the certificate. This is a self-signed certificate created using the 7.0 vRO new control panel, the one I get when you go to https://vro:8281. It is valid and the object (issed to CN) matches perfectly the hostname entered the ASD and endpoint configuration in the vRA. It is separable and time on all components of the server is in sync with the use NTP.

    Now, I even re-generated certificate and re-registered and rebooted all the components, but while I can see that the certificate has been updated all components I always get the same question.

    Never had this problem with the previous version of the NSX / vRA / vRO. I checked the documentation if nothing has changed here, but did not find what I'm doing wrong. Anythimg I'm missing here? Any bug?

    OK, this seems to be the issue. So put atleast to previous day since version ofvRO (cannot check if it's true for charges vRO 7 installs as well but it is probably) vRO 'control center' will generate certificates based SHA1 vRA love not for actions that use the endpoint in the vRA vRO. ASD seems to work without these problems.

    Sidenote: VRO upgraded installs will also come with SHA1 based CERT if they use a self-signed cert created by vRO. However: you would think that it is sufficient to recreate the cert using the control center. But it turns out it isn't, because it will generate a (new) based SHA1 cert.

    What I did to solve the problem:

    1. create a vRO SSH2 based certificate without the cert extensions, similar to the one that ships with built-in vRA vRO. I tend to use xCA for these jobs, but openSSL will do as well. The exact format required for the certificate of vRO is not documented, but I can make sure you need it like this: PEM certificate in key private and public including format PKCS #1, formatted as follows:

    -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
    (Your private Key: your_vro_server.key)
    -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    (Your primary certificate: your_vro_server.crt)
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    (Your intermediate certificate: intermed.crt)
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    (Your root certificate: root.crt)
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    

    I had problems when I used the key extensions so I would say you don't use and don't create a very basic cert without extensions V3, as indicated on the right of the image to my last post (ideally, you want to have a cert with the same properties as the cert is used by the device of integrated vRO vRA unless of course different CN) etc.).

    2. use the vRO control center located at https://your-externa-vro:8283 / vco-controlcenter / #/ and move to--> Orchestrator Server SSL certificate certificates. Use the action to import to import your PEM cert. It should tell you that you need to restart your device vRO. Then RESTART the device (for not just restart the service, this seems not be sufficient).

    3 al ' vRA remove the Endpoint vRO everywhere wherever it has been configured. Also, I removed the vRO to the ASD config just to make sure that nothings left.

    4 reboot the vRA power (IAAS can be left as what). I needed to do this because I have seen that the keystore at some point would keep beeing crushed by CERT vRA (?), I deleted it (AND I checked that they are deleted) reappears in the keystore after a while. After a reboot, the problem was gone, the keystore was clean.

    5. Add the configuration of endpoint and ASD vRO. Accept the certificate.

    6. the works.

    Therefore, while I have no more time to solve the problems more than I guess the problem is the SHA1 function certificate generated by the device of vRO. The internal unit is equipped with a SHA2 based cert that works and after that change the external device SHA1 cert in a basic cert SHA2 all works.

  • P2V fails @ 1% cannot create the VSS (0 x 80042316) snapshot

    Hi all

    I try to convert the old Win2k3 server in my environment vSphere using vCenter Converter Standalone (I tried version 5.0 and 5.5) and job is failing at the first % with the error:

    Failed: Failed to create a snapshot VSS of the source volumes. Error code: 2147754774 (0 x 80042316)

    On the source computer there is no error in the event log.

    PS. is there still chance to download vcenter converter prior to version 4.0?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I had similar problem. Once the restart VSS services helped (or was that restarting the server?), in the second case, it did not help and we used the old version of the converter with bootable CD. I don't know where to download now, however.

  • Lack of P2V - failed: error. ManagedDiskOpenFault.summary

    Hello

    I tried to use the 5.5 converter to convert a physical server Win 2008 R2, I used the local administrator to connect the physical, but labour failed to 1%, the error is FAILED: fault. ManagedDiskOpenFault.summary. I download the log file to analyze.

    Hello

    check if necessary firewall ports are accessible: KB VMware: VMware vCenter Converter 4.x/5.x required ports

    Creting the P2V job are you using the host name of the physical server and this solves by DNS control-workstation where the converter is installed?

  • P2V fails after 1%

    I'm trying to convert a Windows XP PC, as a virtual machine on the server ESXi (3.5.0). I am using vCenter Standalone Converter 4.3.0. Still, the conversion fails at 1%. Someone has encountered this before and if so, how do I get this to work?

    Thank you very much.

    Hi Plamen,

    Thanks a lot for this sort. It was just to add to the source host file suggests. As a matter of interest matter what version of vCenter Converter Standalone client is used for P2V machines, based on the version of ESXi, they will be stored / race of?

  • 5.0 VMware Server 2012 P2V fails with BSOD

    Someone at - it successful Windows Server 2012 with VMware 5.0 installation? I have not tried since an ISO, but when I tried a P2V server restarts periodically and says then there is a problem and that I should look for more information on the 'system thread unhandled exception (winhv.sys)' error as it collects more information!

    Thank you

    Mark

    Construction 623860 is ESXi 5.0 Update 1, so it's ok. You can find an overview of the large version/construction at http://vsphere-land.com/vinfo/release-build-info

    Roles that are installed in the system Windows 2012 (Hyper-V,...)?

    BTW. the converted virtual computer runs on a virtual IDE drive. During the conversion of a physical system, you must always set the type of appropriate ("LSI Logic SAS controller" in this case) in the Converter Wizard.

  • P2V fails with "error: an error occurred during the reconfiguration.

    Hi, we're starting everything just to P2V of our servers and start easy (I thought) qith our WSUS server. Every time I start the job fails on 98% with the error "error: an error occurred during the reconfiguration. I tried to re-boot, I tried to tell the wizard not to include a disk which is compressed. and I tried making minimal changes to the settings all with the same error...

    I don't know what to try next...

    I have attached the diagnostic logs in the hope that some kind soul can point me in the right direction...

    Thank you very much

    Have you tried to remove the/3 GB switch to the boot.ini file?

  • P2v fails after you have 'created' machine

    I am to convert a physical machine to the virtual. I have run the migration with the last update of the converter, select the machine, fill all the credentials as normal working I put on a lun CF with plenty of space. It starts the conversion, but once he 'created' vi machine he thinks thirty seconds, then work is the removal of the machine and the conversion fails gives an error "system FAILED error: found during surgery.

    Anyone have any idea why this is happening when I can convert to other machines without problem in the virtual environment
