Help converting to hyper-v machine? #251

Closed gleep52 closed 2 years ago

gleep52 commented 2 years ago

I realize I'm probably in the minority here - but we run a nice hefty hyper-v cluster and I'm trying to get the SOF-ELK vmdk converted to any sort of hyper-v format. Most instructions I've found revolve around the retired Microsoft virtual machine converter. I've tried the Solarwinds V2V converter and it says it was successful - however, I have tried all 8 options (four gen1 and four gen2) and not a single one boots properly - I get the same error on every conversation after a very long startup period with the CentOS bar loading. Here is a screenshot of the crash: https://www.screencast.com/t/qm4zgI7F

Does anyone have any instructions to convert this to hyper-v properly? Apparently, the Solarwinds V2V does not properly create the partitions or something since the brief crash errors say everything partition-wise is missing... (see screenshot above)

Does anyone have any pointers? I would really appreciate it!

Unfortunately, I don't have any experience that could help here. My suggestion would be to consider building a new instance from the Ansible instructions/playbook if converting/importing doesn't seem to work.
