Linux migration might fail when X Windows configuration is not properly formatted

Linux migrations might fail when the X Windows configuration file xorg.conf is not properly
formatted. The configuration file must have at least one ServerLayout section. The presence of log
items like the following examples in the hpsmpsvc.log file indicates that the xorg.conf file
does not have any ServerLayout sections:

Suggested action

If the migration fails and the X Windows configuration file on the source server does not have at
least one ServerLayout section, do the following:
1.

Rename /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.bak on the source server.

2.

If required, boot the server in single user mode.

3.

Re-run the migration.

4.

After migration is complete, rename /etc/X11/xorg.bak back to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
on the source server.

Partitions created with third-party partitioning tools do not show the proper file system
