Hello,

It may be a network configuration issue. Starting with ESXi 8.0, connecting the helper ISO uses HTTPS and requires Converter server to access port 443 on the ESX host, instead of port 902 as it is for earlier versions; see https://docs.vmware.com/en/vCenter-Converter-Standalone/6.4/vcenter-converter/GUID-4814B6B2-12A4-4E6...

However, keep in mind that Ubuntu 20 is not supported by Converter 6.4. Even if the cloning succeeds, the reconfiguration will fail and the converted VM won't be able to boot. You may need to manually install GRUB, create the initramfs image, create an EFI boot entry, patch fstab and network files, etc.

Regards,

Plamen
