Set the keyword as "TestBlocker". Since it is normally for our customers to have a guest with snapshot, and it will block them to convert those guests.
i met this bug on rhel5, the most obvious thing is when i converting the ESX4.0-RHEL5.4-i386 guest with snapshot it fail with error, after i delete the snapshot convert could continue, but it only happens to the guest which store the disk & configure file on different storage, see the configure files of the guest as below, error message, virt-v2v -ic esx://10.66.65.108/?no_verify=1 -op test $vm -------------------- ESX4.0-RHEL5.4-i386 -------------------- ** HEAD https://10.66.65.108/folder/ESX4.0-RHEL5.4-i386/ESX4-RHEL5U4-i386-noxen-smp-000001-flat.vmdk?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=libvirt2 ==> 401 Unauthorized ** HEAD https://10.66.65.108/folder/ESX4.0-RHEL5.4-i386/ESX4-RHEL5U4-i386-noxen-smp-000001-flat.vmdk?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=libvirt2 ==> 404 Not Found (1s) ** HEAD https://10.66.65.108/folder/ESX4.0-RHEL5.4-i386/ESX4-RHEL5U4-i386-noxen-smp-flat.vmdk?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=libvirt2 ==> 404 Not Found virt-v2v: Failed to connect to ESX server: 404 Not Found //guest configure file without snapshot, /vmfs/volumes/e1b334a5-cc0a83cd/ESX4.0-RHEL5.4-i386 #
