Page 62

Suggested action

Try the following:

1.During the Specify destination disks and Resize NTFS partitions step of the migration wizard process, in the Assign Disks and Resize NTFS Volumes table, modify the disk size in the Destination Size field to match the value shown in the Source Size field.

NOTE: After you modify the Destination Size field to match the Source Size field, the Minimum Destination Size field will display 1 MB more than the Minimum Destination field.

2.Complete the rest of the steps to finish the migration process. The migration will successfully finish.

Migration fails during the disk cloning phase

The following message might appear on the application station log (hpsmpsvc.log) if the destination server disk has a Windows Logical Partition configured on it:

com.hp.mx.smp.vmdisk.api.APIException: Not enough space for partition!

Cause

An existing disk that already contains some Windows partitions is being used as the destination for migration.

Suggested action

To resolve the issue, format the destination disk before you use it as a destination disk.

1.Reboot the destination server and press F9 to enter the BIOS settings of the destination server.

2.In the Advanced Options section, select Erase Boot Disk.

3.Rerun the migration process.

Failed: Drivers could Not Be Injected Into Boot Disk in the logs

Migration fails with the message Failed: Drivers could not be injected into boot disk... and the iSCSI mounting error The target has already been logged in via an iSCSI session appears in the log files.

Suggested action

Restart the application station and retry the migration.

Starting a new migration after a current migration is stopped

If a migration is stopped by means other than a cancellation or failure, the application station, source server, and destination server might not recognize that the migration has stopped.

Suggested action

To start a new migration:

1.Restart the migration agent on the source and destination servers.

2.On the application station, close the migration wizard.

3.Restart the Insight Control application service and the Insight Control server migration Web Service.

4.Reopen the migration wizard.

Unrecoverable sector-read errors on the source server hard drive are not supported and fail a Windows P2P or P2V migration

The following error message might appear if a volume that has unrecoverable sector-read errors is migrated: Server Migration failed. ReadFile failed.
