Hi,
I'm trying to import some .ova images from VMWare that have been copied to
a node. In both cases they fail with the error:
"Conversion of VM from exteral enironment failed: copy-disk stream closed
unexpectedly"
First you need to look at vdsm log to see more details why it
failed.
(the message above is copied verbatim from the log, including
the misspellings)
One of the VMs is a RHEL 6.6 and the other is Windows 7. The import reports
adding a disk and then running a conversion, then appears to fail about 5
or 6 minutes into converting the image.
I'm considering using virt-v2v to do the conversion of the .ova, but I'm
not sure how to get that into ovirt then.
Any suggestions?
Try to run virt-v2v -i ova -o local to import the ova to local
disk (see the
virt-v2v man page for more options) and see if that pass - the errors can be
more detailed there (it suppose to reflect the same error that you get in vdsm
log)., another options you can do is run virt-v2v in verbose mode (virt-v2v
-v).
Regards,
Cam
