ESXi 6.5 .vmdk to Hyper-V Error

[Lord_Hypnos]

I'm trying to convert and transfer my ESXi VM's over to a Hyper-V server. I keep getting these errors:

6/11 14:33:52.721 5304 Facility ???ERROR: ESXVmdk::ParseFile: m_VixDiskLib_Open is fail - 1, Unknown error
6/11 14:33:52.721 5304 Facility ???ERROR: ESXIDisk::CreateInputImage: ParseFile is fail

I've tried: Gen 1, gen 2, VHD, VHDX; it consistently fails.

I'm using 9.0.1.243 along with running as Administrator and the VM is shut down. Any help would be fantastic!

Thank you

Save the file locally somewhere and try converting it then. Alternatively, convert the disk alone.

Thank you for the info! I'll give that a try.
