Issue/Introduction

  • Any form of v2t migration is running on the environment
  • Meanwhile a mp-to-policy migration attempt had been performed and cancelled
  • Post this, the status on the v2t migration is unknown. Finish and status are all reset.
  • From the root CLI on the NSX manager, we can find that the v2t directory which gets created during v2t under /var/log/migration-coordinator, is not present anymore, or it may be present but the contents are incomplete.  

Environment

VMware NSX

Cause

Due to a known issue with migration-coordinator service, parallel execution of mp-to-policy migration while v2t migration is running in the background, deletes the v2t directory or sometimes deletes files from v2t directory. 

Resolution

There has been no resolution towards this at present. This will be fixed in a future release. 

Appropriate actionable to be taken based on the stage where the v2t was on before the directory got deleted.
