P2V Failed at 2%

[conskill]

Hi all,

I am in desperate need of help. I am trying to convert a Windows 2000 physical machine to a virtual machine. I tried to convert it running VMware converter on my machine as well as the target machine. Dispite what I due, I have not been able to get pass 2 % of the conversion prosess. I have attached the log from the target machine.

Thank You

Welcome to the forums.

I have corrected the 2% problem on HP servers before by making sure that the source server was running the latest version of the Support Pack.

Good Luck!

What version would that be?

What is the physical source server? Please include the generation (G) information. Ex: DL380 G5

Right about here it runs into problems with IO. Looks like it's timing out getting the file transfers going.

This is a Compaq Proliant DL360

You will want to go to this page at HP's website. There are links for the Support Pack and you should definitely grab the Firmware Maintenance CD as well. These two updates should hopefully resolve the hangup you are seeing with conversion. I suspect it is a storage controller issue, but am not 100% certain.

Also, once you complete the P2V you will want to immediately uninstall all of the HP/Compaq agents and management software. Check this posting over at the HP forums for info on how to clean up everything.
