Hi Can you please try do delete source VMware VM snapshot and then try to import it? There is known issue for importing VMware VM with snapshot: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1172425 - [RFE]virt-v2v failed to convert VMware ESX VM with snapshot Thanks Nisim Simsolo QE -Testing Engineer IRC: nsimsolo int phone - 8272305 mobile - 054-4779934 ----- Original Message ----- | From: "Charles Tassell" <ctassell(a)gmail.com&gt; | To: "users" <users(a)ovirt.org&gt; | Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2016 9:53:10 PM | Subject: [ovirt-users] Problems With VMWare Import | | Hi Everyone, | | This doesn't seem to be a bug in oVirt so much as in the | libvirt/virt-v2v tool it uses for importing, but I figured someone here | might have run into this issue before.

Has anyone successfully imported a VM from a recent version of VMWare (ie 5.5 or later) into oVirt? Is there any documentation on how to do so? I suppose I could just use something like CloneZilla to do it, but that seems like a bit of a pain, especially since we have about 50 VMs to move...

I tried to convert another VM (this one without a snapshot) and got the error "virt-v2v is unable to convert this guest type" I'm guessing that the problem is that our VMWare VM's are an the v10 format, as I know a lot of tools have issue dealing with the newer format. > > On 16-03-31 05:51 AM, Nisim Simsolo wrote: >> Hi >> >> Can you please try do delete source VMware VM snapshot and then try to import it? >> There is known issue for importing VMware VM with snapshot: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1172425 - [RFE]virt-v2v failed to convert VMware ESX VM with snapshot >> >> Thanks >> >> Nisim Simsolo >> QE -Testing Engineer >> IRC: nsimsolo >> int phone - 8272305 >> mobile - 054-4779934 >> >> ----- Original Message ----- >> | From: "Charles Tassell" <ctassell(a)gmail.com&gt; >> | To: "users" <users(a)ovirt.org&gt; >> | Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2016 9:53:10 PM >> | Subject: [ovirt-users] Problems With VMWare Import >> | >> | Hi Everyone, >> | >> | This doesn't seem to be a bug in oVirt so much as in the >> | libvirt/virt-v2v tool it uses for importing, but I figured someone here >> | might have run into this issue before.
