Hi,
I have been trying this P2V multiple times already. It seems it doesn't go past 1%, even if I leave it overnight. I am running on Windows 7 for Vmware Vcenter Converter version 5.0.1 build 875114. I am trying to P2V an older Redhat server to VmWare. It's freezes at info 'default' Entering the vmacore application loop... I have attached the print screen, log messages, and system information.
Log Highlights:
Waiting for destination virtual machine to boot up as the Converter helper server.
Connecting the Converter helper ISO image to the destination virtual machine.
Powering on the destination virtual machine to run as the Converter helper server.
