Thank you.

As you say, I try to convert as administrator,but failed to reconfiguration too.

I have converted machine which is Windows XP, so it doesnot set UAC.

The licences are not managed by Converter but from Windows itself. In the worst case you'll need to re-activate Windows.

This is very strange but as I recall there is an known error with Converter installed on non-english name folder.

If this is your case, try to install Converter on english named folder and try to reconfig only your VM.

Now I use Converter on English but this error appears.

what do you mean "try to reconfig only your VM"?

If only reconfig failed the VM is not deleted, so you can invoke "Configure" task on that VM, skipping the process of transferring data.

Oh, ok.. already I tried it and it failed too.

why does it happen to fail to reconfigure?

If I stop some services, can it complete?

What about non-english folder names? Including %temp% ones.

i have a 2003 server that runs Vmware Server 2.0 and host 2 VMs running Slackware 12 on a pretty old piece of HW.

I have tried a couple different times/ways using a converter, but says "Re: "Unable to Obtain Hardware information for the selected machine"Unable to Obtain Hardware information for the selected machine". 

Logs don't give me much to go on. 

Tried with vm off/on

Tried with older converter I could find 5.5 and newest 6.

 

Maybe I'm going about it the wrong way.  What am I missing?

can I copy/move the folder with some hacks?

what do you mean of "non-english folder names"?

why check a temp folder?

Exactly it has so many non-english folders, you mean it is one of reasons to fail to convert??

Hi,

 

We tried to input this command "clocksource=acpi_pm" but the error still occurred.

 

sometimes it shows like this after we input the command :

bug unable to handle kernel paging request.png

 

do we have other way to resolved this issue.? btw, this is on live production while using P2V converter. Thanks

Could you upload log bundle? The logs should contain some results of execution of sysinfo utility.

This bothers only reconfiguration...

On physical Server it is running smoothly. We encountered this error on VMs itself during booting up.

I also tried to converting from a copy of the VMs.   The screenshot is of the 2003 server of the services.

Dear Friends

I have Acronis Backup of my PC and i saved as ".tib" file. Now i am trying to convert this Acronis backup to virtual machine.

But i am getting error message "The source parameters are invalid".


I am using VM ware standalone converter client v5.1.0

 

Kindly suggest.

Thank you.

The supported versions of Acronis images are described in User's Manual, check your version against them.

If the version is not supported - convert your VM/Physical as powered on source.

Both errors are similar: FILE: FileIO_Lock on '....\NS1-000001.vmdk' failed: Lock timed out

Are you trying to convert running machines? This is not possible, you should treat them as powered on sources or shutdown and then convert.

HTH
