Description Nandini Chandra 2020-04-14 17:12:14 UTC 
Description of problem:
-----------------------
VM migration failed because VMware host credentials were missing.

The following error was logged to the evm.log file.

[----] E, [2020-04-02T19:00:01.312451 #8419:1209990] ERROR -- : Q-task_id([job_dispatcher]) MIQ(InfraConversionThrottler.start_conversions) Preflight check for auto-conv-rhv-vm2 has failed. Discarding. 

It would be great if the message logged could be more specific and stated the reason as to why the preflight check failed. 
A message like this would be very helpful to the end user and greatly reduce the time spent on troubleshooting the issue.
'A VM with the same name already existed on the target provider'.

It would also be nice if the reason for preflight check failure was shown in the CFME UI.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
-----------------------------
master.20200403002716_63b3608c8d
