unable to connect with virt-v2v to VMWare

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am trying to import and convert some VMWare guests from a VMWare cluster with vCenter version 6, to a KVM (oVirt) host. The KVM node (RHEL 7.2) has virt-v2v 1.28.1, though I've also tried using Fedora 23 which has 1.32.4. 

The details are:

vCenter server: nssesxi-mgmt
Datacenter name: North Sutton Street
esxi server which runs the VM: nssesxi-mgmt04
folder name: Systems
VM name: wvm2
cluster name: nssesxi

Unfortunately, spaces were put in the name of the datacenter, so I escape them with %20

I authenticate against a AD domain (ARDA) with user 'cam'

So the final URI is constructed as:

vpx://<DOMAIN\user@<vcenter_server>/<folder>/<datacenter_name>/<esxi_server> <vm_name>

The error I get is:

# virt-v2v -v -x -ic vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1 wvm2
virt-v2v: libguestfs 1.28.1 (x86_64)
[   0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt -ic vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1 wvm2
input_libvirt_vcenter_https: source: scheme vpx server nssesxi-mgmt
Enter ARDA\cam's password for nssesxi-mgmt: 
libvirt: ESX Driver error : internal error: Could not find compute resource specified in '/Systems/North Sutton Street/nssesxi04-mgmt'

connection 
'vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1'

If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the 
complete output:

  virt-v2v -v -x [...]
#


# virsh -c 'vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1' list --all
Enter ARDA\cam's password for nssesxi-mgmt: 
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: internal error: Could not find compute resource specified in '/Systems/North Sutton Street/nssesxi04-mgmt'
#

I can access via http a list of VMs at the following URL:

https://nssesxi-mgmt/folder?dcPath=North%2520Sutton%2520Street&dsName=nssesxi%252dc2%252dr10%252dlun2

Below is the URI to the vm itself (once shutdown, it gets the name 'vm2_1'):

https://nssesxi-mgmt/folder/wvm2_1?dcPath=North%2520Sutton%2520Street&dsName=nssesxi%252dc1%252dr10%252dlun2

Any idea why the virsh and virt-v2v stuff doesn't work?

Cheers,

-Cam
