VMware migration tool: we need your feedback!

@olivierlambert Oh roger that, I didn't realise the distinction!

michmoor0725

@olivierlambert Ahh ok. Im still new to the whole process here so forgive me.
Can you clarify something for me? I have premium support now but im on the community forums (here). Is there another channel i can use to get the issue addressed in accordance to my license level (community vs preimum). Does this affect the open ticket i have with support?

olivierlambert

If you have XOA with pro support, the first reflex is to go for the pro support and create a ticket. You have the guarantee to have an answer and dedicated resources given in a reduced timeframe.

Here, it's only "a bonus", and we try to help, but there's 0 guarantee.

florent

the test with @dumarjo showed that there is still a bug during the import. I am still investigating it and will keep you informed, hopefully today or tomorrow

michmoor0725

@olivierlambert Ok i see now. xcp-ng.org vs xcp-ng.com. Community vs Pro.

I will keep the existing community POC in place. How do i pivot to Pro? Do i reach out to your amazing team for the iso along with support contract?

olivierlambert

It's off topic but you have both Xen Orchestra and XCP-ng pro support (because they are done by 2 different teams). We can provide bundles with both so you are entirely covered in your infrastructure, not just when you have a problem, but even discussing before about migrating, best practices and having our feedback/advice directly to build the best of the entire stack Feel free to contact us if you want to know more

michmoor0725

@olivierlambert Yep i am escalating to sales here.
I think I started off things incorrectly. It was my assumption that XO being the hypervisor is the product that's free and the XOA is the licensed product.

olivierlambert

No worries, it's not trivial if you don't know anything about our stack, that's why we are working on creating a more unified identity through the Vates stack/Vates virtualization, with everything included (like vSphere includes ESXi+vCenter, Vates Virtualization will include XCP-ng+XO)

florent

@michmoor0725 patch is deployed
tell us if it solves the import

source VM should be stopped. Snapshots are only supported till esxi 6.3 for now

michmoor0725

@florent Thanks for your attention to this. I get a new error now.

We are seeing the "Property description must be an object: undefined error also". VM has been powered off on the VMware host and no snapshots exist. We have updated to the latest release channel. ESX version 6.7. We have opened a support channel if you would like to look around.

Has anyone seen this type of error before?

@michmoor0725 If the detail is not the same as your previous message (vm.importMultipleFromEsxi), please copy/paste it to help us investigate

@michmoor0725 The same as the previous one then.

Which commit are you on?

michmoor0725

@julien-f Im new to this so not really sure how to answer that question.

xo-server 5.113.0
xo-web 5.116.1

I can PM my support ID if you need to poke around.

julien-f

@michmoor0725 If you are using an official XOA, I think the best would be to wait for the future patch release (very very soon) and re-test after having upgraded

michmoor0725

@julien-f No worries. I dont mind waiting a bit. I do know a patch was pushed by @florent a few days ago.
Im hoping the patches in the upcoming release fixes the imports. Right now i cant migrate anything. Not critical at this time.

julien-f

@michmoor0725 XO 5.82.1 has just been released in the latest channel with a few bug fixes, please let me know if that helps.
