I am getting the following error when I try to convert an AWS instance to VMWare on an ESXi host:

Error opening image
The instance has multiple volumes attached. Please remove attached volumes

The instance is powered down - not sure why I am receiving this error. Any help would be appreciated!

Tell me more about the system you are trying to convert.
Is it a VM supplied as a ready AWS instance?

Hi,

Converting the AWS-ready instance might not work. Try P2V from inside the VM.
