Hi all,

I am using Starwind V2V converter tool to migrate a VM on Hyper V to Azure. Please see details below.

Home PC running Windows 10 Pro
Hyper V role installed
VM running on Hyper V (Attempted to migrate VM running Windows Server 2022 as a DC)

I followed the steps in the user guide which went well.

The VM was converting. However, when I checked the progress this morning apparently it had failed to successfully convert. I am unsure why this had happened. The only possibility I can think of is that after the progress bar was on 18% I then signed out of my Microsoft Azure account and let the process finish. Therefore, in order to complete the process and deployment it failed to convert/create the VM because it could not reach or make requests to my Azure subscription.

Please can you assist. See screenshot attached showing the error.

Thank you

Thank you for the logs.
According to the logs, the issue relates to Azure, not the converter.

Code: Select all

Token expiry.
MS writes on it
"After hearing from customers during the preview, we've implemented authentication session management capabilities in Azure AD Conditional Access. You can use this new feature to configure refresh token lifetimes by setting sign in frequency. After May 30, 2020 no new tenant will be able to use Configurable Token Lifetime policy to configure session and refresh tokens. The deprecation will happen within several months after that, which means that we will stop honoring existing session and refresh tokens polices. You can still configure access token lifetimes after the deprecation."
Check this out https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra ... esh-tokens.

Thank you for your reply. I have read your comments and followed the links you provided and raised a request to increase the quota which has been approved. I have also created a new resource group therefore the VM will be deployed to a new region. I hope the process now completes and the VM successfully migrates to Azure.

I will keep you updated on the progress in due course.

Please see screenshots attached of the Azure quota request and Starwind V2V converter wizard setup.

Hi,

This time the process completed successfull and the VM has also been migrated onto Azure. I have logged onto the Azure portal and can see the migrated VM under 'Virtual Machines'. However, I cannot RDP into the VM to test access.

Please help.

Can you open the console and see if the VM is running?
Please note that V2V converter leaves all settings "as is" it does not alter anything or change.
