Re: Troubles when trying to P2V Win 2003 SBS

The error in the log is:

2013-08-02T15:47:35.774+02:00 [03572 error 'task-9'] Unable to find symmpi.sys in the specified CAB files

2013-08-02T15:47:35.774+02:00 [03572 error 'task-9'] Reconfiguration failed with: converter.fault.FileNotFound

 

This is the LSILogic driver. Somehow it is not there.

I can see these ways to work around:
  - if the source machine used BusLogic, change the VM's controller to BusLogic

  - inject the driver in the source and convert again (see

VMware KB:    Injecting SCSI controller device drivers into Windows when it fails to boot after converting it with VMwa…

  - mount the vmdk file of the thus converted VM in another Windows VM and copy the driver in it. (hackerish but may prove to be the fastest)
