Subject: [ovirt-users] Issues importing VMs in oVirt
To: users <users(a)ovirt.org>
So the final URI is constructed as:
vpx://<DOMAIN\user@<vcenter_server>/<folder>/<datacenter_name>/<esxi_server>
<vm_name>
The error I get is:
# virt-v2v -v -x -ic
vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1
wvm2

[ 0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt -ic

wvm2
input_libvirt_vcenter_https: source: scheme vpx server nssesxi-mgmt
Enter ARDA\cam's password for nssesxi-mgmt:
libvirt: ESX Driver error : internal error: Could not find compute resource
specified in '/Systems/North Sutton Street/nssesxi04-mgmt'

If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the
complete output:

# virsh -c

list --all
Enter ARDA\cam's password for nssesxi-mgmt:

I'm not sure what the problem is, although you are going about
diagnosing the problem in the right way.
I would try not escaping the spaces, double escaping them (%2520), and
also removing elements from the path (especially "/Systems" which does
not seem to be necessary) until you can get a URL that works.
An alternative approach entirely is to use an OVA export:

Hi Rich,
I'm not sure what the problem is, although you are going about
diagnosing the problem in the right way.
I would try not escaping the spaces, double escaping them (%2520), and
also removing elements from the path (especially "/Systems" which does
not seem to be necessary) until you can get a URL that works.
I've tried all of these suggestions with no luck, and many more
permutations,
both via
the GUI and the virt-v2v command line. I had a look at your blog to see if
I could use 'dcPath'
but wasn't able to get something that I could use via vpx://.
I've tried on a second VMware cluster with similar results. I'm tempted to
try renaming
the datacenter name to something without spaces, but I have to be careful
there.
An alternative approach entirely is to use an OVA export:
http://libguestfs.org/virt-v2v.1.html#input-from-vmware-ova
Looks like that's the best bet for now.
Thanks for the reply,
Cheers,
-Cam
