As an additional info. If I run the same command from terminal instead of using the bash script the conversion works just fine. Command from terminal: virt-v2v -ic vpx://DOMAIN%5cUSERNAME@vCenterServerName/DC/Logical%20Folder/Cluster/ESXiHostName/?no_verify=1 -o libvirt -os virtimages "conversion-test-vm (43f00f9c-276b-4bc7-9c2f-66c41824960e)" --password-file /tmp/passwd (In reply to Alessandro from comment #0) > #!/bin/bash > export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct > > # Declare all VMs to import > VMWAREVMS=("conversion-test-vm (43f00f9c-276b-4bc7-9c2f-66c41824960e)") > > # Iterate through each VMware VM, performing the conversion > for vm in "${VMWAREVMS[@]}" > do > virt-v2v -ic > vpx://DOMAIN%5cUSERNAME@vCenterServerName/DC/Logical%20Folder/Cluster/ > ESXiHostName/?no_verify=1 -o libvirt -os virtimages $vm --password-file > /tmp/passwd > done You need to quote $vm here, otherwise the different words in the variable will be passed as different arguments. Hence: virt-v2v -ic vpx://DOMAIN%5cUSERNAME@vCenterServerName/DC/Logical%20Folder/Cluster/ESXiHostName/?no_verify=1 -o libvirt -os virtimages "$vm" --password-file /tmp/passwd Hi Pino,
tried that as well and just ran again to double check.
Still same issue:
[root@CENTOS7 Scripts]# ./Test.sh
VM name is: conversion-test-vm2 (f97c63bc-e711-4281-bb57-627c86e06b18)
virt-v2v: error: expecting a libvirt guest name on the command line
If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the
complete output:
virt-v2v -v -x [...]
Test.sh body:
#!/bin/bash
export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct
# Declare all VMs to import
VMWAREVMS=("conversion-test-vm (43f00f9c-276b-4bc7-9c2f-66c41824960e)")
# Iterate through each VMware VM, performing the conversion
for vm in "${VMWAREVMS[@]}"
do
virt-v2v -ic vpx://DOMAIN%5cUSERNAME@vCenterServerName/DC/Logical%20Folder/Cluster/ESXiHostName/?no_verify=1 -o libvirt -os virtimages "$vm" --password-file /tmp/passwd
done

I have checked the body for hidden escapes and there was a space between "?" and "no_verify=1". Like follows: "? no_verify=1". Problem solved. You can close this case. Thanks! OK, closing then per comment #4 and comment #4. |
