Symptoms

Unable to convert a Linux virtual machine

Converting a Linux virtual machine fails at 99%

You see the error:

Unable to reconfigure the destination virtual machine.

In the Converter server log, you see the error:

error 'App'] [task,344] [LRO] Unexpected Exception: converter.fault.CloneFault
info 'App'] [task,373] [task-59] -- ERROR -- Convert: converter.fault.CloneFault
(converter.fault.CloneFault) {
dynamicType = <unset>,
faultCause = (vmodl.MethodFault) null,
description = "InitrdNativePatcher failed to generate initrd image: /usr/lib/vmware-converter/initrdGenRhel.sh failed with return code: 1, and message: * /mnt/p2v-src-root/dev has 2 files

",
msg = "",

Cause

This issue occurs if the virtual machine is installed with a later kernel version that is different from the version currently being loaded. This occurs if the virtual machine was updated to a later kernel version, but was not rebooted to load the new kernel.

Resolution

To resolve this issue:

Run this command to determine the default kernel version:

uname -a

Run this command to find the kernel version installed:

rpm -qa | grep -i kernel

If the installed kernel version is different from the default kernel version loaded, restart the host to load the correct kernel version.
