[libvirt-users] unable to connect with virt-v2v to VMWare

Hi, I am trying to import and convert some VMWare guests from a VMWare cluster with vCenter version 6, to a KVM (oVirt) host. The KVM node (RHEL 7.2) has virt-v2v 1.28.1, though I've also tried using Fedora 23 which has 1.32.4. The details are: vCenter server: nssesxi-mgmt Datacenter name: North Sutton Street esxi server which runs the VM: nssesxi-mgmt04 folder name: Systems VM name: wvm2 cluster name: nssesxi Unfortunately, spaces were put in the name of the datacenter, so I escape them with %20 I authenticate against a AD domain (ARDA) with user 'cam' So the final URI is constructed as: vpx://<DOMAIN\user@<vcenter_server>/<folder>/<datacenter_name>/<esxi_server> <vm_name> The error I get is: # virt-v2v -v -x -ic vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1 wvm2 virt-v2v: libguestfs 1.28.1 (x86_64) [ 0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt -ic vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt /Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1 wvm2 input_libvirt_vcenter_https: source: scheme vpx server nssesxi-mgmt Enter ARDA\cam's password for nssesxi-mgmt: libvirt: ESX Driver error : internal error: Could not find compute resource specified in '/Systems/North Sutton Street/nssesxi04-mgmt' virt-v2v: error: internal error: invalid argument: cannot open libvirt connection 'vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt /Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1' If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the complete output: virt-v2v -v -x [...] # # virsh -c 'vpx://ARDA%5ccam@nssesxi-mgmt/Systems/North%20Sutton%20Street/nssesxi04-mgmt?no_verify=1' list --all Enter ARDA\cam's password for nssesxi-mgmt: error: failed to connect to the hypervisor error: internal error: Could not find compute resource specified in '/Systems/North Sutton Street/nssesxi04-mgmt' # I can access via http a list of VMs at the following URL: https://nssesxi-mgmt/folder?dcPath=North%2520Sutton%2520Street&dsName... Below is the URI to the vm itself (once shutdown, it gets the name 'vm2_1'): https://nssesxi-mgmt/folder/wvm2_1?dcPath=North%2520Sutton%2520Street&... Any idea why the virsh and virt-v2v stuff doesn't work? Cheers, -Cam
