      Using XO-CE commit 2838b
      esxi host 6.7.0 update 3

      Following these steps - https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/v2v-migration-guide

      Perform the first migration attempt
      Start the V2V migration in Xen Orchestra, without enabling the Stop Source option.
      This will transfer the VM data up to the snapshot named vm without tools.
      tip
      You can safely close your browser while the migration runs.

      Monitor the migration progress using one of these methods:
      Check the VM status in Xen Orchestra (it should show importing...).
      Follow the disk transfer progress indicators.
      Testing the migrated VM
      Once the migration is complete:

      Start the migrated VM copy on your XCP-ng environment.
      tip
      Use an isolated network to avoid IP conflicts.
      The VM state might be slightly inconsistent since memory and cache data aren't fully synced.
      Check the following during testing:
      The VM boots up without issues.
      Network connectivity is working properly.
      Xen Tools installs and runs correctly.
      Document any fixes or adjustments required to stabilize the VM.
      Remove the test copy
      Once you’ve finished your checks and taken notes, delete the test VM. This will free up resources and prevent any confusion before the final migration.

      When I go to start the vm after first migration step i get the following error. I did set the wrong network for the vm and set to wrong SR. I can set that on final migration.
