TECHNOLOGY IN THIS DISCUSSION VMware Converter VMware Player Join the Community! Creating your account only takes a few minutes. Join Now I was running ESXi 4.1 host on an old HP DL360 G5 with RAID 5 (3 disks). One of the disks has failed and when I got a replacement, I've found out that another is failing as well. So instead of rebuilding RAID5 I have build RAID0 of two healthy disks (gives me same capacity as RAID5) and installed ESXi 4.1 https://communities.vmware.com/thread/244372?tstart=0 on the new RAID0 Before I build the new RAID I've copied my VM files from the datastore so that I have my nvram, vmdk (both, descriptor and virtual disk), vmsd, vmx and vmxf files, even the log files. Then I copied them all back to a new datastore, imported vmx files to the inventory but when I try to start the VM is hangs on "Disk Read Error has Occurred. Press Ctl+Alt+Del to restart". I can start the https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/330153-disk-read-error-has-occurred-press-ctl-alt-del-to-restart-esxi-4-1 same VM on my VMWare Player with no issues. I've tried changing Disk Controller from BusLogic to SCSI, tried creating new virtual disk of the same size (vmkfstools -c 100G new.vmdk) and then changing new.vmdk to point to my original virtual disk, but it didn't help Reply Subscribe View Best Answer   11 Replies Serrano OP ErikFest Apr 28, 2013 at 4:29 UTC Maybe your other physical disks on this VM Host are shot too? Bad sectors and whatnot? Can you try other disks? Do you have / Can you get spares? By the fact they boot in Player I think (I could be wrong) it's safe to assume your VM's are okay. 0 Mace OP Texkonc Apr 28, 2013 at 4:35 UTC You never want to run your Hypervisor on Raid0. It is just as reliable as Raid5 during a rebuild. You can not stand a single drive loss in Raid0 like you can in Raid5. Still a 3 drive Raid5 is the devil. What happened to you with the Raid5 rebuild is about par for Raid5. The load increases and one of the other drives says F U I am done. Then you lost all, just like if you were running all 3 in Raid0 for production and drive failed. Since you only have 3 drives, your Hypervisor doesn't change much, so it would be better to mirror that
virtual environment by VMware converter, this post shows you how to do a VirtualBox P2V with Microsoft utility disk2vhd. This method gave few errors and issues after the conversion but I managed solve it and boot the virtual machine successfully. Let’s see how to solve http://www.sysprobs.com/virtualbox-p2v-disk2vhd-errors-fix these possible errors and do VirtualBox P2V with Microsofts's disk2vhd successfully. Unfortunately this method works on Windows Operating Systems only since disk2vhd is from Microsoft.This utility converts the physical hard disk partitions to VHD (Microsoft Virtual Disk) format which can be used on Oracle VirtualBox. Migrating a working physical Windows computer to VirtualBox platform is very easy by this way. Once it has been converted to VHD format, it can be used with VirtualBox which runs disk read on any OS like Linux or Mac OS X.In this example, I converted my physical computer which is having two Operating Systems (Windows 7 and Windows XP), but Windows 7 to VirtualBox P2V.Steps for VirtualBox P2V with disk2vhd and Fix Errors.1) Download the latest version of disk2vhd (2.01 version)2) Installation is not required, run the program directly.3) It will pick up the physical hard disk partitions from host OS.Important Note: My mistakeBefore go to next step, let's disk read error understand something clearly!If you want to convert your entire physical disk (for example 500GB with 5 partition) to VHD, then select the all partitions and start the conversion. This will not cause any issues while attaching the VHD to VirtualBox or Virtual PC, except space issue because the converted VHD file will take the same size as 500GB.But, if you want to P2V only specific Operating System and partitions from physical computer, then you must do it properly to avoid problems later.In this example, I like to convert my working Windows 7 host to VirtualBox. So, I must convert the System and boot partitions which are mostly different.Here is my working Windows 7 physical computer.Initially I have converted only Windows 7 boot partition (normally C drive) to save space and time. I know this is not the system partition with boot recorder, but I had the confident to repair and boot virtual machine if it fails to boot later.No matter how many partitions you select and convert, VirtualBox will detect the VHD as the size of full physical disk with correct partitions. When boot loader/recorder not found on any of the disks (Normally its on first partition - E drive for me) OS will not boot.So, my first method returned the following errorA disk read error occurred Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restartIt’s because of system partition is missing
