Move 3.6.2 - Stuck at Press F2 for EFI Boot Manager

I am moving virtual machines with Move 3.6.2 from Hyper-V to an AHV CE cluster. Everything goes well, but after the cutover the AHV VM is stuck at the ‘Press F2 for EFI boot manager’ screen and cpu usage around 52%. Pressing FN+F2, F2, CTRL+F2, ALT+F2 or other combinations have no effect. Please advise. Hyper-V host is Win2019, VM is 2019 with boot from bootmgfw.efi and secure boot disabled. Also tried with Edge, Chrome and IE, same result, stuck at ‘Press F2 for EFI boot manager’ screen.

Move Windows XP VM

These days I’m managing, for one of customer, the migration of its virtual infrastructure to a Nutanix AHV farm from an old ESXi. It has some old VMs, with Windows XP as guest OS, that have to be migrated in Nutanix. Those VMs have installed custom software that cannot be installed in newer versions of Windows because they have been written in old VB6, so my question are:Can they be migrated over AHV? If yes, can I manage the migration with Nutanix Move or there is another way?

Nutanix Move v3.6.2 Debian 10 support

When trying to move from esxi to AHV of a VM with OS Debian 10, I get an error This VM is not on the AHV supported OS list. To proceed with migrating this VM, please be sure to bypass guest operations and take care of installing AHV device drivers separately. This VM has a guest OS which is not supported on ESXi. Please remove the vm from the migration plan if migrating to ESXi. Is it OS not supported?

MOVE not allowing the VM to move Container Mount Error - ESXi to AHV

I attempted several times to move a test VM over and I am running into a issue with the Mount Container process. Is there a fix for this. I suspect it to be an Firewall issue, Any help would be appreciated.Failed VM Migration: prepare target: [[Location="/hermes/go/src/tgtagent/ahvtargetprovider.go:567", Msg="Error creating target path [Container="default-container-90861820611740", Err="exit status 32", Location="/hermes/go/src/libcloud/prism/ahvmountimpl.go:146"] Container mount failed (error=0x4012)"] Target agent error (error=0x4003)]

Nutanix Move v3.6.0 CentOS 8.2 support

Looking on OS supported to migrate with Nutanix Move v3.6.0 I see CentOS 8.2 as supported but when I add a CentOS 8.2.2004 VM to be migrated from ESXi 6.7u2 to AHV 20170830.434 I get this warning:This VM is not on the AHV supported OS list. To proceed with migrating this VM, please be sure to bypass guest operations and take care of installing AHV device drivers separately. This VM has a guest OS which is not supported on ESXi. Please remove the vm from the migration plan if migrating to ESXi.Is this expected?

vdisk copies disappear

We are transferring vdisks from one Nutanix environment to another.  We are going from Euphrates 5.5.8 to Euphrates  5.9. The copy seems to work but then after a while (maybe 15 minutes) the files in the new environment disappear. We’ve tried this several times with the same results. One vDisk is around 26 GB and the other is 2 TB. Has anyone seen this and what is the problem and the solution?

Powershell for Move 3.6 - where is it needed?

Good afternoon, all!I’m setting up a Move project to migrate some VMs from Hyper-V to AHV. In the 3.6 Move user guide, it says “You need PowerShell version 4.0 or later.” Do we need it on each source VM, on the HV hosts, on the management workstation, or all three?Thanks to all for looking! Gregg

Tuning Resources on Move VM

I hope this is an easy question.  Am I allowed to increase the VCPU and memory resources on the Move VM/Docker without issues?  I know hot-plug is disabled, so it’s in the reboot-world.  I found that we are pegging the CPUs out when we are queueing migrations, so I want to try to get some more throughput on it to take advantage of our 25Gb infrastructure. Thanks

Limit on concurrent migrations?

My migration team is doing a good job trying to push as many VM’s through Move to stage reboots after-hours.  I’ve noticed that replication slows way down when we have about 15-20 VM’s waiting for cutover.  I have checked the load on the Move VM and increased the amount of CPUs.  Replication goes well (25Gbit network), but now we only have 2 seed streams going with 19 waiting to cutover.  I have 4 other VM’s that are in the “seeding data” phase, but haven’t started their copies.  Is this a bottleneck within the Move postgres database? Any ideas on how I can get more VM’s copying in parallel? Thanks,
