Converting from oVirt to Proxmox

[gbigras]

I'm trying to convert VMs from an oVirt cluster to a Proxmox cluster.
The starwind v2v utility (version 9.0.1.554) is running on Windows 10 Enterprise
The oVirt cluster is running oVirt 4.5.7
I can authenticate to oVirt using the fqdn url: https:/fqdn-to-ovirt/ovirt-engine/ and admin@ovirt@internal.
I can see the list of VMs
When I select a shutdown VM or its disk, then click Next, nothing happens, it just stays in that dialog window.
Looking a the starwind log file I see the following (notice the last line)

Code: Select all

I disabled the Windows firewall and anti-virus and rebooted

What am I doing wrong?

Welcome to StarWind Forum. Many thanks for your request, I have forwarded the logs to my colleagues in R&D.

Hello.

Having exactly the same error when selecting oVirt clusters.

Here is what I see in the log file:

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

R&D team is still investigating the possible cause. stay tuned. Can you please convert the file into a local disk or VMDK?

[carvalhoiv]

Sure, I can try to do that.

Do you want me to download the disk file and try to convert it locally?

[yaroslav (staff)]

No need to download it, you can convert it straight on oVirt host.

[carvalhoiv]

Since I'm not sure how to do it directly on the host I download 2 disk files (raw) and was able to convert them to VMDK using Starwind.

[yaroslav (staff)]

Thanks for your update.
Please create the VM in proxmox now.

[carvalhoiv]

In my case the destination is not Proxmox but VMware.
Was able to convert the raw disks, create a new vm on VMware, attach the disks directly from Starwind and boot it. Worked ok

[yaroslav (staff)]

Great news
Thanks for your update!

[carvalhoiv]

No worries, thank you for you help and good software.

Hope to hear from you soon to be able to migrate directly and not having to download disk files

[yaroslav (staff)]

I hope so too

The dev team was unable to reproduce the issue with the latest build.
