      I am trying to complete my vmware migration and I have 2 more vm's to migrat. All have been successful until now...

      This is the error message i get when trying to migrate the VM.

      503 Service Unavailable https://192.168.1.125/folder/ArcDC01/ArcDC01-000001-sesparse.vmdk?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=SSD_DataStore
      

      Suggestions? I have since started the VM back up on vmware and the VM is working.

      The only thing i did differently was take a snapshot from a shutdown state before removing the vmware tools. This server is our Primary Windows Active Directory.

          Update - After shutting down the VM and removing the previous snapshot and creating new one. I left VM powered off after creating new snapshot. VM is migrating now.

            FYI, migration will be a lot more efficient for the August release of XO, as we'll be able to use VDDK instead of ESXi API which is... fragile to say the least.
