Resolution

This issue occurs when using VMware Converter 4.0.1 Standalone with ESX 4.1 hosts because Converter Standalone version 4.0.1 is not compatible with vSphere 4.1.

To resolve the issue, try one of these options:

Use the VMware Converter 4.2 Plugin or VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 4.3. Both versions support conversion to vSphere 4.1 environments.

Convert the source machine to an ESX host running a lower version of ESX and then migrate the machine.

Note: You can download VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 4.3. from the VMware Download Center.

Related Information

This issue is usually seen when converting Linux sources because it involves the process of creating of a helper virtual machine to perform the conversion. You may not see this issue when converting Windows operating systems.
