Storage Migration Service
18 TopicsSMS WinRM DNS error
Hi, I started the cutover, old server was renamed with a new IP, new server was renamed to the OG server with IP it is now frozen at 69% due to WINrm failing due to being unable to resolve the name of the destination server. SVGB-TEST1 —> SVGB-TEST2 SVGB-TEST1(OLD) —> SVGB-TEST1 Failed cannot resolve SVGB-TEST2 (It has been renamed?) Any help appreciated.22Views0likes0CommentsCouldn't transfer storage on any of the endpoints
NedPyle I have read the previous posts about this error and haven't been able to resolve my issue yet. My source and destination servers are fully patched, ver 1809 (build 17763.1192). When I run the transfer it transfers about 66 GB then fails. Fails at that point each time then get the above error Result. I've run Storage Migration from the Source and from the Destination with the same result. The Error log in Transfer detail is empty and under SMB detail the Result is just System error. Everything looks a lot like this article but didn't fix it https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/storage-at-microsoft/fix-for-the-storage-migration-service-quot-couldn-t-transfer/ba-p/10159453.8KViews0likes5CommentsStorage Migration Service - Cutover execution failed
I'm working on a test migration from a 2008R2 file server to a Server 2022 target. I've done several migration attempts and am now stuck in a situation where I cannot begin a cutover. I get the following errors in the StorageMigrationService-Proxy (Admin) log. EventID 20502 ========================================= Cutover pair failed. Source Computer: <source server> Destination Computer: <destination server> Cutover stage: UnjoinSource Error: -2147467261 Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Guidance: If possible, take action to prevent the last cutover error from happening and resume cutover. Alternatives include bringing the systems back to initial state before cutover has started and start cutover again. Event ID 2504 ========================================= Cutover execution failed.

I've tried performing SMS database resets on both the orchestration servers and the targets and still get the above error whenever I try a cutover. The inventory & data-transfer are always successful. I suspect I need to reset something on the source computer, but I don't know what I'm looking for. Does anyone have any ideas?2.1KViews0likes5CommentsStorage Migration Services cutover stuck at 91%
Hi, I'm using the Storage Migration Services to move an on prem 2012 R2 server to an Azure hosted 2019 server. I've successfully done the first two steps and I'm doing the cutover and the cutover process has been hung at 91% for several hours. I've confirmed that the new destination server has been successfully been renamed and that the old source has also been renamed. I can successfully ping and connect (RDP) to both servers. But the cutover process is still hung. I checked the event logs in the Storage Migration Services and I see this message logged over and over: 12/19/2022-15:25:53.777 [Info] GetResponseFromHost(fsserver01) returned status: 5. Is reachable: False [d:\os\src\base\dms\proxy\cutover\cutoverproxy\CutoverUtils.cs::IsHostReachable::640] But I'm able to successfully connect to the fsserver01 server with no issues. Is there anything I can do to have the Storage Migration Service complete the cutover? Thanks Nick535Views0likes0CommentsWeird Storage Migration Service Error (Failing after 45gb)
I haven't been able to find any other instances of this error so hopefully someone here might have (or a helpful MS employee might be able to assist). Trying to test a file server migration from 2012 R2 to a new Server 2022 VM, I've had Windows Admin Center running in a dedicated Server 2022 VM and running on the new file server itself and both hit the same error. I've removed any 3rd party AV software from all servers concerned just incase it was interfering but this didn't help either. I can get the job created and it starts the transfer process but after around 45gb or 23k files it errors with the SMS job showing "Couldn't transfer storage on any of the endpoints". The Transfer Detail error log is empty so it doesn't look like it is failing due to file permissions (I've had this before and fixed them). However in the SMS Proxy debug event log there are errors shown right when the job fails: 10/26/2022-10:21:06.708 [Erro] Failed pipeline execution.

Hi guys, testing out Storage Migration Service on the latest Windows Admin Center version 2110. At the transfer phase, somehow the Start Transfer button to start the migration is missing. Anyone else facing this? All validation is passed and tested on a few different VMs and its still showing the same. Is this a bug, or am i missing something? Refer to the picture.9.2KViews2likes13CommentsWAC 2103.02 - Storage Migration Service Error Logs
Running a migration service and tried all the suggested corrections to obtain the error logs -- increased the processing time to 10 minutes validated all the SMB services are active etc. The error log still 'errors' out - I can download User/Group logs with no issue. Anyone got an idea of what / where to start digging into the next?886Views0likes0CommentsWAC SMS Scan failing with Exception of type 'System.Exception' was thrown.
Hi We have 3 Win2008R2 servers to migrate. 3 new Win 2019 (1809) destination servers built and a new Win2019 (1809 Core) to act as the gateway server, with a Win10 PC (20H2) as a management station. WAC (2009 build 1.2.2009.21002) and SMS (1.115.0) have been installed. The Win2008R2 servers have had WMF 5.1 installed and are fully patched. I am using a domain admin account that is a member of the local admins on all servers. I can go through the first part of the SMS setup, adding the hosts and performing the validation which completes successfully. The next stage, Scan, is where the issue is. It appears to wait for 20 secs or so and then reports "Exception of type 'System.Exception' was thrown." and goes no further. It does this with all 3 Win2008R2 servers. If I test 2019 to 2019 it works fine. Windows Firewall is turned off on all profiles. The only error logs I can find are on the destination server, event ID 2503 and 2509: 2503 Job: ProfiletoFILV03 ID: 77f3669a-9051-XXXX-b7e1-6baadd23d03a State: Failed Error: 36934 Error Message: Inventory failed for all devices Guidance: Check the detailed error and make sure the inventory requirements are met. The job couldn't inventory any of the specified source computers. This could be because the orchestrator computer couldn't reach it over the network, possibly due to a firewall rule or missing permissions. 2509 Job: ProfiletoFILV03 Computer: XXXXXXXX.Domain.com State: Failed Error: -2146233088 Error Message: Guidance: Check the detailed error and make sure the inventory requirements are met. The inventory couldn't determine any aspects of the specified source computer. This could be because of missing permissions or privileges on the source or a blocked firewall port. Both of these imply Permissions, Firewall or simply missing. As stated, I'm using a Domain Admin account that is a member of the local administrators, the servers are all on the same subnet so no external firewall involved, Windows Firewall is switched off for all profiles, and we would have a much bigger issue if the file servers were dropping off the network. Be grateful if anyone else can think of anything to help...2.2KViews0likes0CommentsNew Storage Migration Service WAC extension 1.42.0 available
Heya folks, Ned here again. We just released an update to the Storage Migration Service extension for Windows Admin Center. It will automatically appear in your WAC feeds in the next few hours. Going forward I'm going to always announce changes to these WAC tools, since the updates don't have release notes built-in. Tool: Storage Migration Service Version 1.42.0 Notes: Now includes a link to the Azure File Sync tool for each migrated server when cutover completes. This means you can click and be sent to a new tab specific to that server and setup AFS on that node. We have a full set of integration planned here, this is just a nugget. No longer show the Azure File Sync popup banner during transfers and cutovers. Transfer and re-transfer now display more understandable messaging, buttons, and choices. Fixes to ensure accurate share inclusion when modifying a transfer mapping Accessibility fixes Thanks, and good hunting on those Windows Server 2008 machines that stop being supported in 7 months! - Ned "January 14, 2020" Pyle6.8KViews1like1Comment
