Migration fails with the error The File System on Source Disk \\.\PhysicalDrive0,
Partition 0 Could Not Be Resized During the Migration

Migration might fails with the error The file system on source disk \\.\PhysicalDrive0,
partition 0 could not be resized during the migration

in the logs.

One reason for the error could be because the migration wizard changes the Minimum Destination Size
and Destination Size fields to display 1 MB more than the Source Size field, even though a disk resize
was not chosen within the migration wizard. This occurs during the Specify destination disks and Resize
NTFS partitions step of the migration wizard process.

To overcome this issue, perform the following steps:

1.

During the Specify destination disks and Resize NTFS partitions step of the migration wizard process,
in the Assign Disks and Resize NTFS Volumes table, modify the disk size in the Destination Size
field to match the value shown in the Source Size field.

NOTE:

After modifying the Destination Size field to match the Source Size field, the Minimum

Destination Size

field will display 1 MB more than the Minimum Destination field.

2.

Complete the rest of the steps to finish the migration process. The migration will successfully complete.

Migration fails during the disk cloning phase

The following error message might appear on the application station log (hpsmpsvc.log) if the destination
server disk has a Windows Logical Partition configured on it:

com.hp.mx.smp.vmdisk.api.APIException: Not enough space for partition!

If an existing disk already containing some Windows partitions is used as the destination for migration, to
resolve the issue format the disk before using it as a destination disk.

1.

Reboot the destination server and press F9 to enter the BIOS settings of the destination server.

2.

In the Advanced Options section, select Erase Boot Disk.

3.

Rerun the migration process.

in the logs

If the error Failed: Drivers could not be injected into boot disk... displays and the
iSCSI mounting error The target has already been logged in via an iSCSI session
appears in the log files, then restart the application station and retry the migration.
