Import from vmware esxi 6.0 or 6.5

[dumarjo]

Hi,

I just try to import a simple VM from ESXI 6.0 or 6.5 (I have both hosts). I juste update everything to latest (xcp-ng, XO and XOA). When I try to import the VM I get an instant error message:

vm.importMultipleFromEsxi

}

    at next (/etc/xen-orchestra/@vates/async-each/index.js:90:37)"
} 

I tried by the web interface of XO and XOA.

Anything I can do ?

Adding @florent in the loop, but we are about to go in a long weekend (Monday is off). If you have pro support, please open a ticket.

@olivierlambert Not an urgent thing. First test on this.

I get the same error after installing Orchestra yesterday. Using https://github.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_installer on Ubuntu 20.04.xx LTS
xo-server 5.113.0 - Xen Orchestra server
xo-web 5.116.1 - Xen Orchestra web client

$ sudo bash
# bash -c "$(curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_installer/master/xo_install.sh)"

Test by trying to import from ESXi version: 6.7.0 ESXi build number: 18828794 and not vCenter

vm.importMultipleFromEsxi

  "concurrency": 2,

Thank you for the assist.

Please try with XOA and report (XOA Free fully up to date on latest)

[michmoor0725]

@olivierlambert hmm seems to be an issue on the latest channel if esxi6.5 and from my thread where I’m on 8.0 fails?

[olivierlambert]

Then try on stable to check if it works then @florent will investigate ASAP

[florent]

hi @stilllearning @michmoor0725 @dumarjo we merged a fix in master.
For those who use a XOA, open a support tunnel and I will patch the installation

regards

Florent

[michmoor0725]

@florent Thank you! Support tunnel opened.

Give this id to the support: 34781

[stilllearning]

I just updated XOA and import VMs from ESXi 6.7. I am confirming the latest XOA build (update) does work.

I will test the XO next and report.

Thank you @florent

[michmoor0725]

@stilllearning I may have not received the patch yet? Still failing for me. @florent

[florent]

@michmoor0725 Can you open a tunnel and send me the tunnel number by chat ?
the patch won't be released before a few days

[michmoor0725]

@florent Tunnel ID sent via chat. Thank you for your help.
