Hi,

I am trying to get the task progress status using SDK Api but i get runtime errors always. Pls help me with the below code.

int progress = 0;  try{  ConverterTaskInfo taskInfo = null;   do  {   System.out.println("--- getProgressStatus ---");    taskInfo = _converterService.converterGetTaskInfo(_converterServerContent.getTaskManager(), conversionJobInfo.getJob());    System.out.println("Getting task details....");    Thread.sleep(1000);  if(taskInfo == null)  {  System.out.println("ERROR: Failed to get task Job info.");  return progress;  }  ConverterTaskInfoState state = taskInfo.getState();  progress = taskInfo.getProgress();  System.out.println("progress is" + progress);  } while (taskInfo.getState() != ConverterTaskInfoState.error && taskInfo.getState() != ConverterTaskInfoState.success);  } catch(Exception e) {  }

Correct me if i am doing something wrong here. If you have any sample in java it would be helpful.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I am trying to establish a connection and get source from a linux source machine, using ..

ConverterComputerSpec liveSourceSpec = new ConverterComputerSpec();

liveSourceSpec.setLocation( Common.buildLiveSourceLocation(_sourceName, _sourceUsername, _sourcePassword, _sourceOsType, _sourceThumbprint));

ConverterComputerInfo info  = _converterServer.querySource(sourceSpec);

All the parameters except _sourceThumbprint can be entered from the property file., How to determine the _sourceThumbprint. what is the Method that returns the sourceThumbPrint ?

Hello,


I have been trying to use the enhanced SDK samples to convert P2V a linux machine.


I keep getting the following error - System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: A specified parameter was not correct.


I have tried this with both my own properties file and the sample one (after adding my environment details), and both give the same error.


The command I ran was:

I installed converter standalone on a physical box last night and started the conversion process to my vmware environment. Hosts are running 5.5 and I was using the latest version of converter. Physical box is 270 gigs worth of space, so it's not overly large. Got to 91% and it failed with the error "The Session is not authenticated" and that's it.

I'm going to attach the logs to see if that helps but I'm stumped.

Thanks in advance.

I am using the converter SDK to do a Windows 2012 R2 conversion.  The source is a VM running on Fusion on my Mac; however, I am treating the conversion as if the source is a physical machine.  I don't want the target to be vCenter, so I have set the target type to be hosted.   There is post-processing I intend to do, if I can get past the error below.

2015-04-13T11:44:41.196-04:00 [01952 info 'Default'] Run 0 of job "job-29" finished with an error. -- struct Converter::Server::Job::JobExecutor::SchedulerUpdateSpec __thiscall Converter::Server::Conversion::ConversionJobExecutorImpl::UpdateJob(class Converter::Server::Job::InternalJob &,bool,const class Converter::Server::Scheduler::SchedulerItemStatistics &,const class Converter::Task::TaskInfo &) ("d:/build/ob/bora-2183569/bora/sysimage/lib/converter/server/conversion/conversionJobExecutorImpl.cpp:405")

I am not a C++ guy but it makes me a little leery to see the full d:/build/ob/... path in the error message.  Anyway, it's got file info and line number, so I am sure it will be useful to the developers who wrote that class.

The program using the SDK and the converter (standalone v5.5) are running on machine 10.0.1.27 and the Win2012R2 machine (10.0.1.26) has the agent up and running without any apparent issue.  The target destination directory is a network path, accessible by all parties involved.  That share lives on 10.0.1.29.  What follows below is the conversion spec pulled from the logs.  I am deliberately not setting any network nor CPU/mem params so that the defaults are used.  I have modified the storage params to specify no resize, 2 GB sparse files, and set the volumes to clone.  Not sure what is invalid, corrupted or not recognized.

The converter client shows almost all the same info:

Now something that is baking my noodle:  see task 28?  I ran the exact same code but instead of converting 10.0.1.26 (Win2012R2), I attempted to convert the same machine where the converter server is running (10.0.1.27).  I would really expect it to give me the same error on both conversions, but on task 28 the error I get is Error: 209 (type:1, code:13)

Not sure what else to do.  In the code I am validating the source and target specs, and everything passes.  Except when I run things it bombs.

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

I am trying to convert a windows 2012 R2 system to a VM and using VMware converter. but the task fails at 1% with an error A file I/O error occurred while accessing ''.   

please find the screenshot of the error.

I tried on more than 1 server and recieve the same error for both

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Short description of the situation:

We are trying to run the VMware SDK for a convert operation on a local machine. We have installed the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client, the one with a GUI that you can manually convert with, but we would like to be able to do this with the SDK. The manual convert operations within the GUI all seem to be working fine, but whenever we attempt to do this within the SDK we keep getting errors that we have not been able to resolve internally.

Here is the basic information about the environment we have set up and the error:

Downloaded SDK:

* VMware-converter-sdk-6.0.0-2716716.zip

Error Info:
* "Failed login due to a bad user name or password"
* <InvalidLoginFault xmlns="urn:converter" xsi:type="vim25:InvalidLogin" xmlns:vim25="urn:vim25" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"></InvalidLoginFault>
* ConverterConnection.cs line 262

Environment:
* Windows XP SP3
* Firewall Disabled
* ___VMWare_Conv_SA___ user has been added to the administrator group.

Relevant SDK Properties:
operation.count=1
operation#0=Convert
source.type=Physical
source.physical.address=127.0.0.1
; Have tried machine name, local ip, and localhost as well
source.physical.username=administrator
; Have tried under the administrator account, under other accounts, using other admin privaleged users, all to no avail.
source.physical.password=adminpw
source.physical.ostype=windowsOs
source.physical.agentport=
source.physical.thumbprint=
source.physical.reboot=false

converter-server.xml changes:
<enableRemoteAccess>true</enableRemoteAccess>
<enableNonRootAccess>true</enableNonRootAccess>
<validatorEnabled>false</validatorEnabled>

We can provide more information about the client, server and agent setup if needed, although these were relatively unchanged. We also have attempted running the sdk on both http and http (http://localhost/converter/sdk, etc.).

Any help would be much appreciated ~

Hi guys,

Currently I'm attempting to imitate what the GUI version does, but I want to use scripts to get the job done which is, in a way, automate the whole process. I installed the Client-Server version of it, using the sample code within the sdk > samples > Axis folder, I managed to get the job done however, I am unable to specify the minimum value of a specific disk. I want to do this because the GUI version allows me to take an minimum storage space for a specific disk and push it to the ESXi server, for my SDK java version I am unable to take the minimum storage space and had to take the whole disk which I dislike.

For example, disk C has a total of 200GB with 50GB being used space and 150GB of unused space

GUI version -> able to avoid taking whole of 200GB and take about 50GB only (Give and take a few GB more) and push to ESXi server
SDK java version -> only able to take in the whole 200GB and push to ESXi which takes up much space of my ESXi server

Is there a way, such as specifying a certain variable so that I can push my disk with minimum disk storage value instead of taking the whole lot of unused space? Oh and 1 more question, is there a way to power on the VMs in the ESXi after reboot using a script? I did research but can't really find any way so I thought asking here would be good. Any help would be appreciated because I'm a newbie with this

Cheers!

Hi,

I am trying to convert a windows 2008 R2 system to a VM and using VMware converter v6. but the task fails at 1% with an error A file I/O error occurred while accessing ''.

Any ideas?

Hi all,

Sorry for my general question here but I am not knowledgeable outside of scripting in any form of programming and I need to find a way to create a command line task in VMWARE Converter to convert either a P2V or a V2V to a designated location using the time of creation as part of the name so that I can setup this up in windows scheduler to repeat once per week. If anyone has ever written anything that can do this before I would appreciate whatever help that you can provide. Thank you for your time.

Attempting to establish a connection to the web service, but just erroring out:

Has anybody established a connection via PowerShell to the web service?

Hi everybody

I'm, new to the Converter SDK. I successfully compiled the java sample and created a customized submitwinp2vjob.properties file.

My problem is that Converter Server can't install the agent on the source machine:

Executing operation 'QuerySource' from properties file 'submitwinp2vjob.properties'

Failed to execute operation 'QuerySource' from file 'submitwinp2vjob.properties'

null

AxisFault

faultCode: ServerFaultCode

faultSubcode:

faultString: Unable to access the remote Converter agent service. It either does not exist or is not responding.

faultActor:

faultNode:

faultDetail:

        {urn:converter}ConverterNoRemoteAgentFault:<name>SOURCECOMPUTERNAME</name>

Unable to access the remote Converter agent service. It either does not exist or is not responding

The only reference to the agent setup is the following row, blank by default:

source.physical.agentport=9089 ; Won't try to install agent if empty. Usual value: 9089

From the note I understand that it should be enough to put the usual value to install the agent on the remote source machine, but it just throw the error I reported.

For debugging reasons I tried to put some random values as the port number, but if I nestat -n the server I can see always the same try (SYN_SENT) to 9089 port, even if I specified a different port.

What am I doing wrong?
