Cannot migrate VM from 7.5/7.6 to 8.2 INTERNAL_ERROR

Meth0d

I am trying to move some VMs to new hosts in order to get rid of the old 7.5/7.6 hosts.
I understand that you cannot migrate from 8.2 to lower Versions but from 7.X to 8.2 should work right?

After running for some time, the migration job fails with:

vm.migrate

It might work, but it depends on various things (older the version, higher the chances it doesn't).

Double check you have the same amount of memory (dynamic min = dyn max = static max) before migrating.

Memory is set fixed:

Is this in any way tied to what management agent or guest OS this is ?

I can migrate this VM from another host (7.6) to the 8.2 host just fine:

Im not sure what the agent actually is, thats why im guessing this might be related
