Could you upload log bundle for investigation?

P2V Error - FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'BlockLevelVolumeCloneMgr::CloneVolume: Detected a write error during the cloning of volume
Trying to P2V a server and having some quite major issues, I've attached the log file.
So far I've tried different versions of converter, tried a direct link between Physical box and host for conversion using a crossover, P2V individual drives, the best I have had so far is it seemed to complete but this was making the destination one RAID set on RAID 5 its really quite strange.
Just wondering if anyone has experienced this before and can help narrow it down.

Re: P2V Error - FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'BlockLevelVolumeCloneMgr::CloneVolume: Detected a write error during the cloning of volume
You're using old Converter, try the latest Converter 6.2
If error persist, then try to check disk(s) on ESX host.

Re: P2V Error - FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'BlockLevelVolumeCloneMgr::CloneVolume: Detected a write error during the cloning of volume
Done both already, used 6.2 primarily. Today is the first time I used V6.0 as a test. I have done a check disk as well all pass.

The error
2018-11-27T13:15:24.296Z warning vmware-converter-worker[12680] [Originator@6876 sub=Default] [,0] [NFC ERROR] NfcFssrvrProcessErrorMsg: received diskLib error 327689 from server: Input/output error -- NfcFssrvrWriteCB: failed to write 655360 bytes @ 13273923584 : Input/output error

is definitely from ESX side.
Could check the ESX logs why error happens.

Re: P2V Error - FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'BlockLevelVolumeCloneMgr::CloneVolume: Detected a write error during the cloning of volume
There is a chance that network drop make such error... how many times conversion fails and is there difference in percentages when error occurs?

Re: P2V Error - FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'BlockLevelVolumeCloneMgr::CloneVolume: Detected a write error during the cloning of volume
Just looking on the host to see what errors there are if any, Its a Dell VRTX chassis with 1 blade in.
Its different percentages but I don't think its a drop, originally we had the physical and the host connected via a switch, thinking the same thing I then connected them directly via a crossover cable and it still fails. I've done constant ping tests as well and there is no packet loss when it does fail. Will come back with anything in the logs shortly.

Re: P2V Error - FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'BlockLevelVolumeCloneMgr::CloneVolume: Detected a write error during the cloning of volume
Are there any particular logs your after there are some interesting items in events as well, FYI we have the following installation -
| Dell | PowerEdge VRTX |
| Dell | PowerEdge M640 (VRTX) |
And were utilising the custom image off the drive page for the M640 revision 6.7.0 build 8941472.
See attached for errors I've noticed. I have tried loads of ways to convert and have been constantly deleting data off the datstores from failed conversions. I'm a little confused though how the stores could be dropping when its in the same unit I appreciate its a VRTX chassis and blade but still its a single unit effectively and the permissions are all there in the CMC for it to utilise the RAID sets.

Re: P2V Error - FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'BlockLevelVolumeCloneMgr::CloneVolume: Detected a write error during the cloning of volume
From Converter perspective - disks are created then the data is transferred, if some data transfer failed the whole VM (and disks) are deleted because of wrong data into.
About ESX logs - they are many and can't say where to look for exactly but probably using the name of destination VM will localize log(s) and probably problems with transfer.
About network and storage drops - try the ESX forum.

Ok thank you, I will take a look and start exporting some.
Does anyone else have any idea's from what I've submitted so far?.

Struggling to find much in the logs so far although only looked briefly, anyone have any other ideas?.

P2V converter issues
I am trying to convert RHEL, but once I deploy in VMWare, the guest VM will ask for converter login. It says root and password, but once I enter it fails. Has anyone faced the same issues. Any suggestions.
Thanks

Re: P2V converter issues
Check SSH is available for source machine.

Re: SSL Exception when Converter tries to connect to vCenter
Downgrading to 6.1.1 also fixed mine.

Re: P2V converter issues
if your ssh is ok
check your firewall that's better turn off your firewall
service iptables stop

Re: SSL Exception when Converter tries to connect to vCenter
I'll give it a try. The VMX version incompatibility I have found out this by myself, but maybe the converter 6.1.1 is more stable and doesn't just stop. On the other hand it could be related to my network card, becasue it gave me a purple screen on heavy usage recently.

Re: P2V converter issues
ssh is enabled, firewall is disabled. Once I start converting, it stops at 1%. I tried to login in helper console, it was asking for converter login and password. It doesn't accept any item.

Re: P2V converter issues
You can troubleshoot Helper VM connection to source machine with switch useSourcePasswordInHelperVm=true and eventually powerOffHelperVm=false
Check VMware Knowledge Base and VMware Knowledge Base
