Hi,I am trying to move a Windows Server 2012 R2 VM from Xenserver to AHV. With reference to this article: AHV | Migrating a Windows VM from XenServer to AHV everything is working great except when I am at the last step. When I turn on the VM in AHV, I am getting a boot device not found error and windows will not boot up.Windows will start with a windows icon throws the error and restarts, then goes into disk repair, reboots and same error and goes into the troubleshooting menu and when I am restart the VM in AHV it again and always goes into the boot disk inaccessible error.I made sure all the Xen components are already uninstalled from the vm and Nutanix VirtIO drivers are also installed. Tried with loading the image as scsi and IDE, but still going into the same error. Also tried booting up in safe mode, tried disk repair, etc. but no luck.Please help if someone has a solution.PS: I am migrating Windows Server 2012 R2 from XenServer to Nutanix AHV.
When I pull the VM details using powershell, the Guest OS for all of my VM is empty. I am using the correct syntax '$vm.guestOperatingSystem' to pull the information. All the other information like VMName, Container, PowerState, NetworkAdapters, etc... are coming except Guest OS and Description of VM. Even if I create a new Windows Server 2012 R2 VM, the Guest OS field shows nothing for new VM as well. I have 47 VMs currently on a Nutanix host but the Guest OS information is empty for all of them. Please let me know if anyone else is having this issue and how to resolve it. Details: ---------------------- Hypervisor: AHV
PROBLEM: When doing VM Migration from XenCenter to AHV, the VM gives a boot disk error at the startup in AHV after migration. DESCRIPTION: VM to Migrate: Windows Server 2012 R2 XenCenter Version: XenCenter version 7.1 64-bit Nutanix HyperVisor: AHV I am trying to do VM migration from XenCenter to Nutanix AHV. I am referring this article (https://portal.nutanix.com/#/page/kbs/details?targetId=kA00e000000kAKJCA2) which seems to be the exact case what I am trying to do here. Every step is going smooth, but I am facing error only when the VM is migrated and when I start the VM it will always go into disk check and boot device not found error. See image: This is happening in both of the following case when I am creating a VM in AHV and mounting the disk image of the VM to be migrated: 1) When the DISKs are mounted as SCSI a. Now, when I am mounting the disks as SCSI which is the normal approach, the VM startup goes into the same error and VM will reboot and goe
Hi Everyone, I am migrating VMs to AHV from XenServer. The process involves Copy XenServer VM Disks to Nutanix Datashare on XenServer Create DISK_IMAGE from the disks copied on Nutanix DataShare The manual process is to create an image in Nutanix using URL nfs://Nutanix Host IP/SR Name/SR UUID/DISK UUID.vhd I am looking to automate this step using Powershell and Nutanix Cmdlets 'New-NTNXImage' Please help me on how can I create a image (source: URL) using powershell So far I have this, code:$URL = "nfs://172.21.92.26/Xen_to_AHV_Migration/f63571ed-3fbf-80ba-f851-31767ad753fc/357527a6-e441-46e9-a680-f05f1af831aa.vhd"New-NTNXImage -Name "xenahvwintst - disk 1" -Annotation "Copied VM xenahvwintst - disk 1" -ImageType DISK_IMAGE -ImageImportSpec $URL I am not sure on how to include the URL into the command to create NTNXImage
