I'm trying to migrate a Windows 11 physical host to Proxmox 9.11 but it is just stuck at "Connecting. Please wait..." and then never finishes.

The log just keeps printing out:

Code: Select all

5/17 1:47:21.408 2d680 Facility ???INFO: Proxmox::WrapperProxmox::WrapperProxmoxImpl::GetDiskPath: Get storage info lists
5/17 1:47:21.789 2d680 Facility ???INFO: Proxmox::WrapperProxmox::WrapperProxmoxImpl::GetDiskPath: Get storage info lists
5/17 1:47:22.174 2d680 Facility ???INFO: Proxmox::WrapperProxmox::WrapperProxmoxImpl::GetDiskPath: Get storage info lists
5/17 1:47:22.632 2d680 Facility ???INFO: Proxmox::WrapperProxmox::WrapperProxmoxImpl::GetDiskPath: Get storage info lists
I've tried from multiple computers on the same LAN, both can SSH into all 3 Proxmox nodes tried. What am I missing?

Edit: I've tried the latest version posted as well as the beta linked elsewhere on this forum StarV2V.9.0.1.Setup.850_1087 2/2/2026.

Please share the entire conversion log.
For now, try converting with disk2vhd > QCOW > copy and import to Proxmox.

The logs do not seem to be helpful, but hopefully you can solve the issue since you have been advertising this exact feature.

Saving to local storage and uploading it takes much more resources and time and not a good workaround response. If you have known bugs, just say it instead of wasting my time. The problem needs to be fixed so this feature can actually be used.

Thanks for the logs.
What is the source OS?

Thanks, also, were you able to SSH from that Windows 11 box to Proxmox?

We were unable to reproduce the issue with Proxmox 9.1.19. Looks like there's something strange with this system. My colleague mentioned that 9.1.1 might be the problem. Consider patching to the latest build.

Same happens in 9.2.2. But I did learn something, if I leave it overnight, the next day it gets to the next screen. I have yet to find out if it takes 1 hour or 8 hours, but its definitely more than 10 minutes because its so long I forget to keep checking until the next morning. Happens with all 3 nodes I tried in the cluster.

When it does get to the next screen, I configure it with settings (the name never changes which looks like a bug) and then click next. Minutes later, it errors out without any useful error message to go on whatsoever. Proxmox event log doesn't show any VM being created or any sort of interaction with Starwind. Is there a way to enable debug verbosity? The current log output isn't helpful.
