@Meth0d thanks for sharing your experience. Fortunately I was able to just hit "Convert to HVM" after my imported PV failed to reboot after upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04 - was all set to load a livecd etc too!

@julien-f Thanks a lot for this update!

It's not only this code. But in general, a good way to manage that is: "every message in CAPS is coming from the lower layer" (ie not XO).

@nraynaud well i just used the datastore browser to download the vmdk. i did the same thing with some other (smaller) VMs without any problems. All of this from the same ESXi host. Thanks for looking into it though, i will try the export VM way next but have to find the right time for a shutdown ...

@julien-f yes, works well (even with the 3td party script ). Nice job and fast as usual . Thanks @Alexander-0 for helping to pin it down

I can migrate this VM from another host (7.6) to the 8.2 host just fine: [image: 1612363337871-29412a19-7047-4feb-a82e-1b3d3ce61a94-image.png] Im not sure what the agent actually is, thats why im guessing this might be related [image: 1612363441628-eb67e1dd-0979-4b17-94a8-b3d4f72397a5-image.png] VM that fails: [image: 1612363482511-153e71d2-3779-4894-b990-3b4f6b02e032-image.png]

yep i know but i think it is much better to have 2 Ext SR each with 1 hdd than to have 1 SR with a raid with 2 hdd, regarding downtime in case of failure disk
