Migration failed completely

Hi. I want to transfer from my PacBook (10.6.8) to new Mac Mini (10.8.1)
Went to initialization, successfully networked both Macs via Ethernet, and when initialization was over desktop appears and absolutely no Migration.
If I now open Migration on Mac Mini it wasnt 10.8.1 otherwise it wonrt work.
Very frustratuing Anybody an idea for a workaorund?
Thanks,

Live Migration failed using virtual HBA's and Guest Clustering

Hi,
We have a Guest Cluster Configuration on top of an Hyper-V Cluster. We are using Windows 2012 and Fiber Channel shared storage.
The problem is regarding Live Migration. Some times when we move a virtual machine from node A to node B everything goes well but when we try to move back to node A Live Migration fails. What we can see is that when we move the VM from node A to B and Live
Migration completes successfully the virtual ports remain active on node A, so when we try to move back from B to A Live Migration fails because the virtual ports are already there.
This doesn't happen every time.
We have checked the zoning between Host Cluster Hyper-V and the SAN, the mapping between physical HBA's and the vSAN's on the Hyper-V and everything is ok.
Our doubt is, what is the best practice for zoning the vHBA on the VM's and our Fabric? We setup our zoning using an alias for the vHBA 1 and the two WWN (A and B) on the same object and an alias for the vHBA 2 and the correspondent WWN (A and B). Is it
better to create an alias for vHBA 1 -> A (with WWN A) and other alias for vHBA 1 -> B (with WWN B)?
The guest cluster VM's have 98GB of RAM each. Could it be a time out issue when Live Migration happen's and the virtual ports remain active on the source node? When everything goes well, the VM moves from node A with vHBA WWN A to node B and stays there
with vHBA WWN B. On the source node the virtual ports should be removed automatically when the Live Migration completes. And that is the issue... sometimes the virtual ports (WWN A) stay active on the source node and when we try to move back the VM Live Migration
fails.
I hope You may understand the issue.
Regards,
Carlos Monteiro.

Hi ,
Hope the following link may help.
To support live migration of virtual machines across Hyper-V hosts while maintaining Fibre Channel connectivity, two WWNs are configured for each virtual Fibre Channel adapter: Set A and Set B. Hyper-V automatically alternates between the Set A and Set B
WWN addresses during a live migration. This ensures that all LUNs are available on the destination host before the migration and that no downtime occurs during the migration.

Server 2012 r2 live migration fails with hardware error

Hello all, we just upgraded one of our hyper v hosts from server 2012 to server 2012 r2; previously we had live replication setup between it and another box on the network which was also running server 2012. After installing server 2012 r2 when a live migration
is attempted we get the message:
"The virtual machine cannot be moved to the destination computer. The hardware on the destination computer is not compatible with the hardware requirements of this virtual machine. Virtual machine migration failed at migration source."
The servers in question are both dell, currently we have a poweredge r910 running server 2012 and a poweredge r900 running server 2012 r2. The section under processor for "migrate to a physical computer using a different processor" is already checked
and this same vm was successfully being live replicated before the upgrade to server 2012 r2. What would have changed around hardware requirements?
We are migrating from server 2012 on the poweredge r910 to server 2012 r2 on the poweredge r900. Also When I say this was an upgrade, we did a full re install and wiped out the installation of server 2012 and installed server 2012 r2, this was not an upgrade
installation.

The only cause I’ve seen so far is virtual switches being named differently. I do remember that one of our VMs didn’t move, but we simply bypassed this problem, using one-time backup (VeeamZIP, more specifically).
If it’s one-time operation you can use the same procedure for the VMs in question -> backup and restore them at new server.
Kind regards, Leonardo.

Collection Migration fails

We are trying SCCM migration from CM7 to CM2012 first on a test environment before moving to production. Many collection migrations fail with
Entity ABCD with path SMS_Collection.xxxxxxxxxxxx failed with Invalid Query for collection rule Query
I can see some Attribute classes have not been migrated , that is why the collection can't migrate with those queries and it fails. How to correct it ? The closest to this problem/solution was in an earlier thread here "Migrating Collections
fails" . WE have the AD Forest Discovery turned on and the SCCM servers have been discovered. So, the solution in that thread has not worked. Any ideas ?
cheers
Vij

Thanks for the reply Peter.
The colelction won't be migrated at al if it is a mixed one; so I am not bothered about it.
Yes, we have extended hardware inventory in CM2007. I thought it is automatically migrated during SCCM Migration tool.
I can see some Attributes on which the queries are based is not migrated, that is why the collection migration fails. So, how do we create extended hardware inventory in SCCM 2012, the best solution would be to migrate that also from CM 2007. Someone was
saying , create a client first, then inventorying that would pull in extra hardware attribute classes. I don't know if it would work or not; but that would defeat the purpose of during migrations first before going for clients.

Error Message "Persistent store Migration Failed"

Dear Users:
I have a Curve 8330. When attempting to back up my Blackberry, I get the
message ³Persistent store migration failed, missing source managed object
model.² What does this mean and why can¹t I backup my Blackberry to the
MacBook address book?
Thanks,
Glen

I can help you to solve your problem, just follow the next steps: 1.- Get the unit into the “Support Menu” by following the steps below:A.- Press and hold the “*” and “#” keys at the same time then release both keys.Display should say “Enter Special Key Combo”B.- Press and release in sequence the “1”, “2” and “3” buttons. Once in the menu, follow the next steps:2.- Press and release the right arrow button twice.3.- Display should say “System Configuration Menu”.4.- Press and release the “OK” button.
5.-Display should say “Hardware failure status”. If not there already, press Arrow Key over to “Hardware failure status”,
6.-Press and release the “OK” button.
7.-Display should say “Hardware failure status: Clear. Press OK to clear”.
8.-Press and release the “OK” Button. The message changes to “Hardware failure status Cleared. Press Cancel to continue”.
9.-Press and release the “CANCEL” button as many times until the “Welcome to Photosmart Express” window appears.
10.-Turn the unit on and then off, continue with the installation/setup of the unit. If this error continues then the unit may have any other problem. Let me know if this solved your problem.

Persistent store migration failed, missing source managed object model.

I downloaded the new Desktop Manager and all seemed to go well (I did a backup), until I tried to sync the address book with my new 8120. I then got an error message 'Persistent store migration failed, missing source managed object model', followed by a failed to sync message. Having had my calendar corrupted by the leaked version I didn't want to risk that.
I don't want to be too negative, but after many years of being a Palm user my Blackberry experience so far has been a nightmare.
Anybody else having problems?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You had the leaked version installed? Did you still have it installed when you installed the official version? If you removed it, what steps did you take to remove it?
I would like to get some more details:
Mac OS version:
Device software version:
Device model:
Carrier:
Are you using BIS, BES or both?
The only stupid question is the one you don't ask before you reboot the BES.

Writing Failed Completed

Hi everyone,
I have done my homework with Encore, checked the FAQ for any software that may interfere with the program etc.
I am having a problem with ONE project. I recently filmed an all-day event and it turned out to be 4 separate DVDs worth of content. Now when I went to burn each individual disc (One for the morning, one for afternoon, and two for the night) three of them worked fine, they play in my computer, my DVD player and other DVD players that I have also tested. Also, with those 3 DVDs, when the writing is completed, Encore prompts me with "Writing Complete." However, when the fourth disc is completed the prompt I see is "Writing Failed Completed", exactly like that. I thought that was a bit strange so I tested in my computer first and nothing happened, the DVD drive was trying to play (it seemed like it WANTED to play it) but nothing happened. Same exact thing in two seperate DVD players (seemed like it wanted to play but nothing happened).
These 4 projects are almost identical (only difference being the video file I am using for the different projects) the menus are the same, the routing is the same, the links are the same (essentially I copied one menu and just pasted it for use on the other projects).
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
Tony

Ruud,
Thank you so much!
I, too, have no idea what was going on with it. Even when I wrote the image file, Encore STILL propmted me with the "Writing Files. Failed Completed" so I was skeptical if your idea was going to work. Anyhow, it worked great and the DVD plays just like all the other ones!!
Thank you again!
Tony

If migrations fails, how to restore data

Hello,
if migration fails at image applying step, we can use another TS to install OS only and loadstate.exe to restore data from SMP, I tried it and it works. But if we use hardlinks, after fail I need to run TS to build OS only and it overwrites folder C:\_SMSTaskSequence\
where UserState folder is stored, and I am not able to restore data. What I can do in this situation?

Hi,
First I recommend you check the log file SMSTS.LOG.
Also as Peter mentioned, you could use loadstate via the command line to restore the data.

Migration/Live Migration fails with shared storage (SMB), but not all the time

I have 2 Hyper-V Hosts using shared storage via SMB. I'm having intermittent issues with migrations failing. It'll either go through the motions of doing the whole move and fail and/or when I try to start it again I get the following:
I've done a lot of reading on this and have done various things that have been recommended. For each Hyper-V host I've setup delagation via Kerberos. ie. HV_Host1 has CIFS - HV_Host2; CIFS - SMB Server; MS Virtual System Migration Service - HV_Host2 and
vice versa.
On the actual SMB share on the Shared Storage server I added permissions to the folder for HV_Host1, HV_Host2, Storage Server, Domain Admins and my user account for full access.
In Group Policy, I've blocked Inheritance for the OU containing the Hyper-V hosts, though I have added some of the Group Policy's manually that I needed.
Last thing, I also added Domain Admins to the Local GP on each Host for "Log on as a Service" and "Impersonate a client after authentication" as shown in this thread: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/windowsserver/en-US/7e6b9b1b-e5b1-4e9e-a1f3-2ce72ea1e543/unable-to-migrate-create-vm-hyperv-cluster-2012-logon-failure-have-to-restart-the-hyperv
I get these failed migrations regardless if I start them on the actual Host or via the admin console from Win8.
At this point I'm not sure what else to check or the next step to take for this.

Hi Granite,

Client PC migration fails from SBS 2003 to SBS 2012 Essentials

Please check out this entire message before making an assumption about what it says, thanks.
Our old SBS 2003 Server hard failed a few weeks ago.
Rather than repair it, we ordered a new server with SBS 2012 Essentials and loaded the backup data from the old server.
The Server is just fine. We are having no issues whatsoever with the server. I kept the old domain name and server name.
The Client Computers, some Win7 some Win8.1, have turned into a nightmare to re-connect.
What happens is, the user can log in, but has no files in desktop, downloads or documents, nothing has been migrated:
The process I'm using is this:
1> I take them off the old domain and set them up as workgroup: NOGROUP... that works fine.
2> I bring up http://SERVERNAME/connect and begin installing the server software, no problem yet...
        >> This goes to a point where it asks for a restart, followed by a lot more waiting.
        >> Eventually it crashes with a message I have, unfortunately, not documented (sorry).
3> When I restart the PC, I'm able to log into the user account : DOM\username, but none of the users files are there.
Looking at the file tree at C:\Users I see a folder structure like this:
C:\Users
        |_ _client.setup_ (essentially empty)
        |_ username         (the old account... and yes, it has all of the files and app data)
        |_ username.DOM (the new account, but essentially empty)
It appears that the setup was supposed to migrate 'username' thru '_client.setup_ into 'username.DOM' but failed.
I can move all of the data from 'username' to 'username.DOM' to solve the data and files problem.
But the AppData folder cannot be moved in its entirety (I tried, and it clobbers the user completely), I have to manually transfer files from 'username\AppData' folders (Local, LocalLow and Roaming) making sure to transfer only the files that don't exist
in the 'username.DOM\Appdata' folders.
I realize that this process leaves me with a 'Less Than Perfect' AppData setup.
Since I have many Clients left to convert, I'd like to know if I'm doing something wrong, or how to make it right.

With a new server with a new domain you have started down the right path. Disjoin and the http:// technique should have worked, but we can address that when you can give us more info.
When joining a new domain the old users profiles get blocked by security to the new users. But the local admin or the domain admin should have access. The way I do it is to copy out the required data from the old profile to a safe place then
copy it back to the new profile when finished. But there are profile migration wizards, one of them at
www.forensit.com, that work very well.
As for the system crash when you did the join... please see if you can get the message, and then examine the logs in both the server and the client.   For the server, look here:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2014/09/30/windows-server-essentials-log-files.aspx
For the client, scroll down in the link above to the section about client side logs.

What to do when SLS - Lion Server Upgrade & Migration Fail

Hi everyone,
I've had a tough time over the past week trying to updating my SLS to LS. (It was a slow week at the office so despite the warnings in these discussions I wasn't disturbing anyone, so I thought I'd try...) Both an upgrade to the current running system and a clean install on a wipe of that hard drive stall at the "Configuring Services" "Upgrading services" screen of the set up process. The migration path eventually fails, and as far as I can tell, it seems that the upgrade path just stays there forever.
Don't worry - I'm doing this all on a Super Duper! clone of my primary drive, so I can go back to SLS whenever I need to.
BUT, I can tell that the server's status is at least partially okay, even in this stalled setup state - iChat seems to work on various clients, and I can use Server Admin to see stats and services, etc.
So despite the discomfort of a failed install, part of me feels like I'll be fine with the LS if I can just figure out how to move my old data into the right places for the new system to use it. But I can't find any guidance for that. I'm looking to migrate OD (seems to have migrated fine), iCal, iChat, Address Book, Wikis, Time Machine, and File Sharing (which should be trivial to set up, I reckon).
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks very much,
Willhaus

Okay, so I've had some marginal success.
After leaving the hung install for a ridiculous amount of time (24+ hours), I realized that I could click the help button, and from the help window click the "further info about Lion Server" link to launch Safari. That gave me access to Software Update from the Apple menu, which then let me install the latest Safari update which conveniently enough requires a restart.
After restart, the Server Migration Assistant kicked in again, but failed quickly in the upgrading services stage. Another restart, and the sever finally booted more or less normally.
The strange thing was that although chat services worked fine during the hung install, all OD-related services stopped working after restarting. Turns out there were no users or groups in OD. Importing them from an OD archive, though, restored them.
So now iChat works great (even the old chat longs migrated successfully), and AFP is properly sharing our volumes across our studio's network. So our server is limping along.
The other services we need that aren't up yet are Wiki and iCal. Some info about those:
Wiki: administrators can log in and see all wikis just fine. That's awesome because it means the data migrated successfully. Any non-admin users can log in, but are then get a wiki-styled page that says simply "No wikis found". It's as if they don't have permissions to see the wikis, even though in Server.app they belong to the groups that the wikis are associated with. I've tried removing and re-adding users to groups, but that doesn't seem to do it. Any ideas how to fix this?
Calendar: While I can't get this to work, it's not like it's completely lifeless. An account in a client Lion iCal configured with the proper Lion settings returns an error that reads:
"The Server is Busy or Unavailable.
"The server at myserver.com is currently unable to handle the connection for account “ Calendars” due to a temporary overloading or maintenance of the server. If this continues you should contact the server administrator.
"You may try to connect to the server again or take the account offline."
As a logged in administrator, in a wiki clicking on Calendar in the nab bar goes to the calendar style page with an unending dialogue box that reads "Getting events from server". And clicking on Calendar from Home page footer takes me to the URL https://myserver.com/webcal with an error that says:
"Service Temporarily Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.
Apache/2.2.20 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.20 OpenSSL/0.9.8r DAV/2 Server at myserver.com Port 443"
Again, at least I'm confident that the data migrated properly - I can find all the calendar data in it's proper new location - but either the service won't start or something's not configured correctly. I've tried chaining the hostname and restarting the service about a billion times. I've got no idea what to try next. Any ideas?
Thank you so much,
Willhaus

Hyper-v Live Migration not completing when using VM with large RAM

hi,
i have a two node server 2012 R2 cluster hyper-v which uses 100GB CSV, and 128GB RAM across 2 physical CPU's (approx 7.1GB used when the VM is not booted), and 1 VM running windows 7 which has 64GB RAM assigned, the VHD size is around 21GB and the BIN file
is 64GB (by the way do we have to have that, can we get rid of the BIN file?).
NUMA is enabled on both servers, when I attempt to live migrate i get event 1155 in the cluster events, the LM starts and gets into 60 something % but then fails. the event details are "The pending move for the role 'New Virtual Machine' did not complete."
however, when i lower the amount of RAM assigned to the VM to around 56GB (56+7 = 63GB) the LM seems to work, any amount of RAM below this allows LM to succeed, but it seems if the total used RAM from the physical server (including that used for the
VMs) is 64GB or above, the LM fails.... coincidence since the server has 64GB per CPU.....
why would this be?
many thanks
Steve

Hi,
I turned NUMA spanning off on both servers in the cluster - I assigned 62 GB, 64GB and 88GB and each time the VM started up no problems. with 62GB LM completed, but I cant get LM to complete with 64GB+.
my server is a HP DL380 G8, it has the latest BIOS (I just updated it today as it was a couple of months behind), i cant see any settings in BIOS relating to NUMA so i'm guessing it is enabled and cant be changed.
if i run the cmdlt as admin I get ProcessorsAvailability : {0, 0, 0, 0...}
if i run it as standard user i get ProcessorsAvailability
my memory and CPU config are as follows, hyper-threading is enabled for the CPU but I dont
think that would make a difference?

Many thanks,

I have solved the problem myself. There was an inconsistency in the WCM database. In the table "wcm_sub_resources" some entries had an urikey starting with "key=". I deleted these rows and ran the migration again. Now it works.
Here is the approach:
Open Enterprise Manager on DB host. In database "WCM" find the table "wcm_sub_resources" and choose "Return all rows". In the SQL editor type the following query:
SELECT *
FROM wcm_sub_resources
ORDER BY urikey
Now scroll to the bottom and delete all rows where urikey starts with "key="

2010 - 2013 Public Folder migration failed - Property Expression isn't valid

We just migrated from 2003 to 2010, and now on to 2013. I have Exchange 2013 CU3 installed, and all mailboxes moved. When trying to move the public folders, I'm getting an error about DataValidationException. Property expression <PF
Name with spaces> isn't valid......
Many articles refer to a mail-enabled public folder with spaces can't have spaces in the alias. This is NOT a mail-enabled public folder, so there isn't an alias that I can find.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Server Migration failed to migrate web server virtual hosts

I just migrated from an my Mac OS X Server 10.4 to a brand new 10.6 machine. It seems to have copied all my files but failed to bring across the extensive list of virtual hosts I was serving. Entering them in one by one is going to take a while, so does anyone know how to pull them across? I have the old server attached in target mode, but not sure where apache keeps the configuration file for that.

After some more digging, it appeared that migration assistant just completely failed to set up the Open Directory on the new server. Fortunately, I managed to get the old drive cloned to an ATA drive, which I used to boot an ancient G4 tower, from whence I was able to do an Open Directory export and import into the new server.
I seem to be having the same inability to Kerberize the Open Directory that a lot of other people seem to have, but I don't actually need that feature, so it's not a big deal.

Migration failed completely
