Green Screen of Death Dmotion

[epping]

just did a dmotion of a Windows 2000 server, the screen said you can not migrate a OS of this type, i did it anyway \!!! it crashed the esx host it was on killing all running vms, the migration worked though!!!

anyone else seen this?

Just curious, did you have time to take a picture of that!! If you have it, you can send it to Mike Laverick, I'm shure he will put it on his screen picture collection of death screen. In général these screens are purple...

I think I have done dmotion of Windows 2000, where was the "you cant migrate an OS of this type message"? I don't recall seeing that.

i got to the bottom of this, i while ago someone came in and did some P2Vs in our 2.x environment using platespin, they seem to have made a mistake on all the OS and chosen Windows 2000 Pro instead of server. i noticed this as after it came across the OS was set as other in virtual centre

i have check all others and changed the OS in VC and now they do a Dmotion fine
