VMware ESX cannot synchronize with the disk before canceling.

Hi,
I've Esxi 5.0
When I try to create a snapshot in my Vm(Win server 2003), I had this event :
VMware ESX cannot synchronize with the disk before canceling. Disk /vmfs/devices/multiextent/32afe26c-blaptlsfra02-000003-s001.vmdk may be inconsistent.
And my vm is stopped !
When I try to restart it I have "NTOSKRNL.EXE is missing or corrupt."
I try to restore this file (with the windows cd) but it's not possible because windows don't find hard disk !!!!
I try to copy .vmx and .vmdk in the other folder I've :  "error caused by the file...blaptlsfra02-000002.vmdk"

Sorry I wasn't quite clear. What I was thinking of was to edit the downloaded VM's .vmx file and use the Converter to convert the local VM back to the ESXi host with the proper disk controller (LSI Logic Parallel) and virtual disk type (Thick or Thin).

It may also work to edit the .vmx file on the ESXi host and run the Converter against the VM on the host. In this case however you need to reload (http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1026043) the VM after editing the .vmx file or remove/add it from/to the inventory. As you can see in the log file, the Converter still sees sourceDisk = "[HP P2000 G3] blaptlsfra02/blaptlsfra02-000003.vmdk" which most likely causes the error message.

How did you create the VM? Did you upload it from a hosted product like VMware Workstation? It looks like the VM uses an unsupported virtual disk format. Please download blaptlsfra02.vmx, blaptlsfra02.vmdk, blaptlsfra02.vmsd as well as the vmware.log file, compress/zip them and attach the .zip file to your next reply post.

This VM is kind of unusual.

Did you convert the VM directly to the ESXi host, or did you convert it to e.g. VMware Workstation and upload it to the host later?

The "twoGbMaxExtentSparse" is not how this should be and the default controller type for Win2003 is "lsilogic" rather than "ide". I'd recommend you backup the VM's files, before taking any action. What I think could be done (after the backup) is to revert the VM to the base disk and run the Converter again, selecting the proper controller type and destination.

According to the file list it looks like the VM never really ran with snapshots. Can you confirm this?

I converted in file and upload it after.

Where I can find "the good pratice" for convert ?

This server is SQL server databases, Can I hope restore data ?


I don't understand the what a must do after the backup of file. I'm a "newbie" Smiley Wink

Can I decrease the space allocated ?

Thanks

I'm pretty sure this can be fixed. However, I need to know whether the VM was working after you created the snapshots or whether we can revert to the base disk without loosing data!?

To backup the files, I'd suggest you download them to a local disk. Provided you do have VMware Workstation installed on your local system, we could try to fix the issue with the local copy and upload the VM again after fixing the issue. This way the original files (the ones currently on the host) are not affected.

No, the vm has stopped just after what I wanted to create the snapshots.

Ok, I understand, I backup all files in my system.

I don't have VMware Workstation, I download it now.

Thanks

Oui je suis français, mais je ne parle pas très bien français Smiley Sad

Anyway, if you don't have VMware Workstation installed, you don't necessarily need to do this. We should be able to get this done with manually editing the files and then using VMware Converter to convert the VM back to the ESXi host.

VMware Workstation installed.

I'll launch the donwload of the VM files tomorrow.

I don't understand why you use again VMware Converter.

I guess you will receive the same error message if you try to launch the VM as it currently is. What I would do is to reset the VM to it's base disk by replacing

ide0:0.fileName = "blaptlsfra02-000003.vmdk"

with

ide0:0.fileName = "blaptlsfra02.vmdk"

in the VM's .vmx file. Then - without first powering on the VM - use the Converter and convert the VM back to the ESXi host, but selecting the "LSI Logic Parallel" disk controller in the wizard (in "Devices").

If you want, unregister ("Remove from Inventory") the current VM from the ESXi host's inventory and rename its folder on the datastore before you run the conversion. This will allow you to use the VM's original name for the newly converted VM.

Hi,

Just to confirm:

Step 1 : Backup

Step 2 : Update blaptlsfra02.vmx (I use VI in TTY consol ?)

Step 3 : Convert This VM with Converter with option "LSI Logic Parallel"

And I can Use VMware Workstation to start the new VM ?

Right ?

Many thanks

Hi,

During the convert there are error (I translate it because it is french version):

Error : System volume not found, unable to perform the reconfiguration.

I put the log file in attachment.

Hi,

It works, I can restore my data. Thank you very much.

I have other win2003 servers to convert, could you tell me where a can find the good practice and parameters for create a VM with Convertor ?

Thanks lot

... could you tell me where a can find the good practice and parameters for create a VM with Convertor ?

You'll find most answers here in the forums Smiley Wink

Anyway, I don't know of a best practice. There are a few things however to keep in mind, where the most important part is the virtual disk controller.

  • Windows 2003 -> LSI Logic Parallel
  • Windows XP -> Buslogic
  • Windows 7/2008 -> LSI Logic SAS

If a conversion fails at 98%, check/fix the VM's configuration and run the Converter again, using "Configure Machine". This often helps fixing boot/controller issues.
