Import from VMware fails after upgrade to XOA 5.91

rmaclachlan

I started experiencing this exact same error after upgrading to 5.91 yesterday. It seems to affect one of my VMs that has 2 VMDK disks, the first (OS) disk copies over successfully, the 2nd (data) disk fails.

I've tried making a new VMDK and copying my data over, then destroying the old one in case there was a problem with that file but it still hangs around 50% then the task fails.

Might worth some investigation on our side, yes.

My VM doesn't have multiple vmdks, just the primary 16GB thin provisioned OS drive. Its actual size is only 4.77GB.

1vCPU
2GB RAM
16GB Disk
1 NIC
No dangling snapshots
powered off

truly nothing out of the ordinary.

olivierlambert

Yeah it seems simple, I wonder what's going on, @florent will take a look. Ideally, if you can open a support ticket so we can take a look remotely, that would be helpful

florent

ok, I am testing it with more disks , but the ENOSPC puzzle me for now

florent

@jasonmap , @rmaclachlan , can you test this branch : fix_xva_import_thin ?
from this PR : https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/7354

fbeauchamp opened this pull request in vatesfr/xen-orchestra

closed fix(xo-server/migrate-vms): XVA import - fixes omnibus #7354

@florent

I would be happy to test - but this is where that "hand holding" would come into play.

no problem . If you have a XOA , please open a support tunnel, I can patch your install
If not:

go to your XO install folder, inside, you should have a lot of files, and also a @vates, a @xen-orchestra and a packages folder
git checkout fix_xva_import_thin
yarn && yarn build
4 restart your xo-server

In the FWIW department, I get the same errors when trying to import with 5.91:

Where is the "XO install folder"? I did an ssh into the xoa vm and I don't see what you refer to?
I tried running "git checkout fix_xva_import_thin" but it says "fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git"

if it's an XOA, even a starter/free one, open a support tunnel, I will take care of it
If not, how did you install your XO from source ?

archw

@florent
The one I showed above what the starter version. Since I made that post, I also tried running it on the one I built from source and it is version "Master, commit 09247". It has the same errors.

I just opened a support tunnel.

archw

@florent I just sent you tunnell id

the patch is applied

@florent
Cool...I'll give it a shot...takes about twenty minutes. (it always dies in the last minute).

rmaclachlan

Hi, I tried after the patch applied but it still failed. The task progress didn't seem to hang so I thought it would complete but in the end it failed and removed the VM from XOA.
