When we are trying to import Suse Linux VM from VMWare hypervisor to XCP-Xg (OVA Export & Import) VM imported but it struck at Boot device: Hard disk success.

We ran below command in Suse Linux VM before exporting.

 

dracut --add-drivers "xen-blkfront xen-netfront" --force

 

We appreciate your help  in this regards on how fix this boot issue.

 

 

Thanks,

Shakeel

You're better using the Conversion manager component of the Citrix Hypervisor to pull the VM from Vmware - https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-hypervisor/8-2/conversion-manager.html

Right, and uninstall VMware tools (if installed on the VM) before you do the conversion.
