*virt-v2v* can convert Windows guests with corrupted or damaged Windows registries
Previously, the *hivex* library used by *libguestfs* to manipulate the Windows registry could not handle corrupted registries. Consequently, the *virt-v2v* utility was not able to convert Windows guests with corrupted or damaged Windows registries. With this update, *libguestfs* configures *hivex* to be less strict when reading the Windows registry. As a result, *virt-v2v* can now convert most Windows guests with corrupted or damaged Windows registries.

Description

The actual error is: hivex: hivex_open: returning ENOTSUP because: SOFTWARE: trailing garbage at end of file (at 0x2084000, after 7639 pages) hivex_open: SOFTWARE: Operation not supported Similar to bug 739029. Anyway, this requires a change to hivex to make it more lax (like Windows itself) when processing corrupt registries. Since hivex is not on the ACL for RHEL 7.3, this conveniently means we can defer this bug to 7.4. *** Bug 1230414 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Defer to RHEL 7.5. Someone is in fact working on this problem upstream, see: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-February/thread.html#00159 The hivex patches were completed unexpectedly quickly. I have posted patches for libguestfs to use them. This will require changes to hivex too. https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-February/msg00194.html Verify the bug with builds: virt-v2v-1.36.3-1.el7.x86_64 libguestfs-1.36.3-1.el7.x86_64 qemu-kvm-1.5.3-134.el7.x86_64 qemu-kvm-rhev-2.8.0-6.el7.x86_64 virtio-win-1.9.0-3.el7.noarch libvirt-3.1.0-2.el7.x86_64 libguestfs-winsupport-7.2-2.el7.x86_64 Steps: 1.Build auto job:converting win10（i386 and x86_64） guests from ESXi5.1/5.5/6.0 to libvirt by virt-v2v Note: rhel means that run the testing with qemu-kvm rhev means that run the testing with qemu-kvm-rhev Result: All win10 guests could be converted successfully and checkpoints are passed, details pls refer to below jobs https://libvirt-jenkins.rhev-ci-vms.eng.rdu2.redhat.com/view/v2v/view/RHEL-7.4/job/v2v-RHEL-7.4-runtest-x86_64-acceptance-libvirt/13/testReport/rhel/convert_vm_to_libvirt/ https://libvirt-jenkins.rhev-ci-vms.eng.rdu2.redhat.com/view/v2v/view/RHEL-7.4/job/v2v-RHEL-7.4-runtest-x86_64-acceptance-libvirt/13/testReport/rhev/convert_vm_to_libvirt/ So the bug has been fixed, move the bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
