@florent
Thank you very much for your quick help on this one.
The patch resolved the issue for both migrations we were struggling on.

It is fantastic to see the teamwork and a resolution developed so quickly.
Really makes us feel confident in knowing we made the right decision with going to XCP-ng for our clients.

Thank you

I'm seeing something similar, not sure if its the same issue, but mine stops at 95% and just hangs there:

Did you solve the problem?

If you are looking for another migration solution, you can also try Vinchin Backup & Recovery, which migrates VMware to XCP-ng by restoring VMware VM to XCP-ng host.

@Vanny we are still working on the issue which seems to be partly due to the new V2V code, and partly to qcow2 supports.

Note that the v2v tool is a convenient tool, but there are a lot of good tools out there, and some may better fit your needs after testing.

FYI, Vanny is a representative from Vinchin

Got most of them working, except 2 of the bigger ones.

@nikade we'll got them ( on monday )
could you remind me the exact size of the disks ? to check for an alignment issue

nikade

@florent it was 2 windows vm's, both with 100gb but not even 50% filled.

Edit: All Linux VM's worked tho.
