Tried with new build:
virt-v2v-1.28.1-1.7.el7.x86_64
libguestfs-1.28.1-1.7.el7.x86_64

steps:
# virt-v2v -ic vpx://root.111.25/tzheng-demo/10.66.106.63/?no_verify=1 tzheng-win2008-32

[ 453.0] Finishing off

Result: Conversion finished successfully and guest can boot up with no error.
       so move this bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
