    my offline p2v is crashing with error 3140 before the wim gets copied to the source machine;  the source machine (WIN7) is available (it pings, c: drive can be accessed by host explorer, and can be connected via rdp);  i can't find any info on error 3140 - can anyone point me to a source for error code definitions or has anyone seen error 3140?    I am suspicous of the wim file the host is attempting to plant on the source - what is the filename of the wim and in what folder is it located on the host?   thanks for any info!

    What happens if you try an online P2V?  If we can use an online conversion it is preferrable.

    I'm getting the same error-  I have to do an offline clone as it is a Domain controller we are trying to P2V. As soon as we start the P2V it fails at 1.3.1 or 40% trying to boot to WINPE environment.

     

    Any tips?

    1-please try online P2V or the following Disk2VHD tool.

    2. If the server is a DC, is it possible to temporarily demote it, convert it to VM and then promote it as DC again?

    Hi.

    I just want to mention that I agree with Fawzi. It`s not recommended to do a P2V on a DC. It`s also much easier to promote a new DC in stead, and then you also know that your configuration is OK.

    Regards,

    i ran an online p2v a few weeks ago just to witness if the process would fail or succeed - it succeeded;  however, the purpose of the offline migration was to gain experience and preparedness in an offline p2v so I can be ready for the migration of my DCs.  to this date, the offline p2v has not been successful - this is still an open issue

    Why don't you capture some traces (procedure outlined in the general forum) and send them to me and I'll have a closer look.  Send the trace files to mbriggs@microsoft.com 

     

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Same problem and here is the solution:

    In brief:

    1. Open an elevated command prompt and run : bcdboot c:\windows /s c:
    2. This will copy the required boot files to the C drive. Notice the hidden boot folder on the root of the C drive and also the bootmgr file.
    3. Set the C drive as active : You can do this from disk management or using diskpart
    4. Reboot the server
    5. Open disk management and make sure the C drive is marked as SYSTEM.
    6. Try the P2V process again and this time it should work fine

    In OS 2008 R2 Sp1 mentioned link is working fine for me while offline P2V

    We need to follow-up 6 steps only.

    1. Open Command Prompt using run As Administrator and type bcdboot c:\windows /s c: , press enter
    2. Above Command will copy the required boot files to the C drive. Cross Check the hidden boot folder on the root of the C drive and also the bootmgr file.
    3. Now, Setthe C drive asactive : Youcan do this fromdisk management or using diskpart
    4. Reboot the server
    5. Open disk management and make sure the C drive is marked as SYSTEM.
    6. Try the P2V process again and this time it should work fine
