Convertor Fails at 1%

[andydev6]

Hi,

   Last night i tried to Clone one of our Citrix servers (Windows 2003 R2 SP2) but it kept failing at 1%. The server was powered down for the process and i had created a new Volume on our HP SAN for the destination of the new VM. The target volume fo the new VM is connected via iSCSI

The Source server has 2 Drives but in the process i only wanted to clone the OS (C:/) which is approx 60gb in size but only approx 30 gb in use. The target volume i created is 60gb.

I have roamed about the forums looking for answers but there are so many variables of the logs i am seeing for other people i thought i would share mine.

Using ESXi 4.1.0 build 582267

Using VMware convertor standalone client 4.3.0 build 292238

Can anyone help with the below logs?

The worker log is more useful in this case, also you sould try the conversion with Converter 5.0
