Description Ilanit Stein 2021-08-05 16:43:04 UTC
Description of problem:

In MTV-2.1 there are cases that the migration plan will show as if it's running, with no progress in the disk copy.
This cannot be fixed within MTV-2.1 time frame.
It is planned to get it fixed in MTV-2.2.

Please document in MTV=2.1 Trouble shooting section the below information: 


There might be various reasons causing the migration plan to be in such a state: 
 1. No suitable target storage as required.

 2. Missing vddk-init-image configuration on the OCP cluster.

 3. VM has no disk.

 4. One of the validation rules fails the VM import, but the error is not 
    propagated to the migration plan.
    Examples: 
      a. VM is set to be Migratable (affinity policy) - For this we will also 
         need to document RHV procedure to how change VM to be non migratable 
         (pinned to host), or redirect to the RHV Doc.
      b.  VM has USB.
    The issue is usually displayed in the migration plan create page, by the 
    validation service, as a critical warning, but if the user will miss/ignore 
    it, the migration plan will be at the state described above.  
    Also the cause is usually indicated besides the failing VM import object, 
    in the Openshift workloads->Virtualization page. 

** 1, 2 might already be documented in the MTV Document.
