Cause

This issue occurs if the source NSX-V Edge to be migrated is missing a Router ID in its Dynamic Routing Configuration.

Resolution

For more information on the Router ID field see the Cloud Director documentation, Specify Default Routing Configurations for the NSX Data Center for vSphere Edge Gateway in the VMware Cloud Director Service Provider Admin Portal.

Example steps would be as follows:

1. Login to the Cloud Director Provider portal as a System Administration.

3. Select the source NSX-V Edge to be migrated and click Services.
4. Open the Routing, Routing Configuration tab.
5. In the Dynamic Routing Configuration section set an appropriate Router ID.
6. Save changes to the services and retry the migration with VMware NSX Migration for VMware Cloud Director.
