VMware migration tool: we need your feedback!

Thanks for the quick response, the same error looks to persist.

Running the curl command gives

Performing the same check with -tlsv1.0 gives

curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not
establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and
how to fix it, please visit the web page mentioned above.

Not sure if this helps.

Hi!

I am having a similar problem to @andyh
Our VMWare is v5.5, xoa CLI throws:

      "result": {
        "message": "Client network socket disconnected before secure TLS connection was established",
        "name": "Error",
        "stack": "Error: Client network socket disconnected before secure TLS connection was established\n    at Function.AxiosError.from (/opt/xo/xo-builds/xen-orchestra-202306231640/node_modules/axios/lib/core/AxiosError.js:89:14)\n    at RedirectableRequest.handleRequestError (/opt/xo/xo-builds/xen-orchestra-202306231640/node_modules/axios/lib/adapters/http.js:591:25)\n    at RedirectableRequest.emit (node:events:527:28)\n    at RedirectableRequest.patchedEmit [as emit] (/opt/xo/xo-builds/xen-orchestra-202306231640/@xen-orchestra/log/configure.js:52:17)\n    at ClientRequest.eventHandlers.<computed> (/opt/xo/xo-builds/xen-orchestra-202306231640/node_modules/follow-redirects/index.js:14:24)\n    at ClientRequest.emit (node:events:527:28)\n    at ClientRequest.patchedEmit [as emit] (/opt/xo/xo-builds/xen-orchestra-202306231640/@xen-orchestra/log/configure.js:52:17)\n    at TLSSocket.socketErrorListener (node:_http_client:454:9)\n    at TLSSocket.emit (node:events:527:28)\n    at TLSSocket.patchedEmit [as emit] (/opt/xo/xo-builds/xen-orchestra-202306231640/@xen-orchestra/log/configure.js:52:17)\n    at emitErrorNT (node:internal/streams/destroy:157:8)\n    at emitErrorCloseNT (node:internal/streams/destroy:122:3)\n    at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:83:21)",

While webUI stucks on "Connect" with no apparent logs present..

When checking tls level of my esxi host:

localhost:~ # openssl s_client -connect www.google.com:443 -tls1
CONNECTED(00000003)

Will there be a support for older versions of ESXi? Or maybe I am doing something wrong. Thanks in advance!

@akaylee we brole rejectUnauthorized ( handling of self signed certificate) During the upgrade of node-vpshere-soap, the fixes are coming and it should also work on 5.5

the first one have been merged and should allow you to list the VM on the host. Does it work ?

akaylee

@florent it doesn't seem to work, still stuck on 'Connect', 20 minutes elapsed

florent

@akaylee what is your current commit ?
this is the right one : 0f0c0ec

akaylee

@florent sorry, overlooked!
Yes, I was able to connect to my esxi host after updating to 0f0c0ec, testing migration right now
Thank you!

andyh

@florent Just updated from sources, but my latest commit looks to be 0f0c0ec0d. Have I missed something ?

florent

@andyh that's ok, I only pasted the start of the hash

As long as you're up to date on master, it should work (also it does not disable certifictae check for the whole process now )

andyh

@florent I still look to be receiving the same error, after updating to 0f0c0ec

write EPROTO C0D7ADA7B77F0000:error:0A000102:SSL routines:ssl_choose_client_version:unsupported protocol:../deps/openssl/openssl/ssl/statem/statem_lib.c:1987:

Any further thoughts?

andyh

Gave this is a try earlier with some changes to my openssl.cnf

Sadly still coming across the same error, is there a minimum ESXi version that the import tool will connect to ?

Hi!

I did try the migration from the GUI for the first time.
The job did start and create a VM on XCP-ng. But there is no snapshot on the "VMWare-side" and there is no progress on the import.

The job did start and XO-tasks is now showing "importing vms, duration a few seconds, status green"

There is no "cancel" option.

On the XCP-ng-SR, there are the new disks, but they are empty.

Do you have any idea, what I did wrong and how I can proceed?

Tested on XOA on latest stable

Thank you and best wishes

florent

@KPS is there anything in the log ( journalctl ) ?

we can't migrate live data. Is the VM running ?

KPS

@florent
Sorry, that was the problem.
I was mislead by the wording "Source VM stopped before the last delta transfer (after final snapshot). Needed to fully transfer a running VM" in the GUI.
