PlateSpin Migrate 12.2.2 adds the following parameter for the PlateSpin Configuration tool:
RemoveVMwareDevicesAtCutover: The PlateSpin Configuration parameter RemoveVMwareDevicesAtCutover controls whether floppy drives are removed after a successful cutover. The default value is False, which leaves an extra floppy drive attached but not connected to the VM. You can set the value to True to force the removal of the extra floppy drive at cutover. The removal process shuts down and restarts the Guest OS. This reboot is required.
PlateSpin Migrate 12.2.2 adds support for TLS 1.2 connections for the PlateSpin Server.
As a security best practice, you should apply patches that address security vulnerabilities to your PlateSpin Migrate Server host and PlateSpin Migrate Client host, as you would for other Windows servers in your enterprise.
Micro Focus is aware of the side-channel analysis vulnerabilities described in CVEs 2017-5715, 2017-5753 and 2017-5754, known as Meltdown and Spectre. The current recommended actions have been applied on the PlateSpin Server images in Azure. We strongly recommend that you continue to apply security updates that address such threats as recommended by Microsoft for the Windows operating system for the PlateSpin hosts. Consult the vendor documentation for information.
PlateSpin Migrate 12.2.2 no longer supports the following:
Installation or upgrade of PlateSpin Migrate Server on Windows Server 2008 R2.

Micro Focus strives to ensure our products provide quality solutions for your enterprise software needs. The following issues are currently being researched. If you need further assistance with any issue, please contact Micro Focus Support and Services.
For information about known issues in previous releases, see Previous Releases.
Issue: If your Windows Server 2012 R2 server is protected by Symantec Endpoint Protection, the PlateSpin Server Installation/Upgrade file might be improperly quarantined by SONAR, which is part of the Symantec Proactive Threat Protection / Virus and Spyware Protection policy. (Bug 1080782)
Workaround: Do one of the following:
Disable Symantec Endpoint Protection during the PlateSpin Server installation or upgrade.
Exclude SONAR detection for the folder where you extract PlateSpin Install/Upgrade file. The %TEMP% folder is the default location for extraction. Refer to Managing SONAR on the Symantec website.
Issue: PlateSpin Migrate 12.2.2 does not support a direct upgrade for PlateSpin Servers running on Windows 2008 R2.
Workaround:
You can export your database, then deploy Migrate Server on a supported Windows Server platform. See Upgrading to a New Host Platform
in the Installation and Upgrade Guide.
Issue: When you use the semi-automated (X2P) workflow to migrate a Linux workload to a target VM, the migration job fails with the following error if the job network configuration has the Enable Compression option selected to allow compression of data during data transfer. (Bug 1089276)
Message Exception happened in Compressor Decompressor: Compressor::RunDecompressor().
Workaround: Before using the semi-automated (X2P) workflow to migrate a Linux workload to a target VM, deselect the Enable Compression option in the Network section of the Job Configuration window.
Issue: When you choose to migrate a UEFI or BIOS Windows workload to Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V or Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2016 target, the Virtual Machine generation type in the Hyper-V Virtual Machine Configuration dialog is set by default to Generation 1 and you cannot edit the generation type. (Bug 1087212)
Workaround: None. Migrate Client does not support UEFI-to-UEFI or BIOS-to-UEFI Windows conversions for migrations to Windows Server Hyper-V 2016 or Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2016. The target workload will be deployed with BIOS architecture irrespective of the source architecture.
See Planning for Migration to Microsoft Hyper-V
in the User Guide.
Issue: When you migrate a Windows Server 2008 SP2 or Windows Server 2008 R2 source workload to Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V, the following job warning message displays if Migrate cannot use the C:\Windows\system32\vmguest.iso file to install the Hyper-V Integration Services driver on the Hyper-V target VM during the migration:
"InstallHyperVIntegrationServices" (Failed: Non-Critical Error)
The migration completes successfully, but Migrate does not automatically install the Hyper-V Integration Services driver on the target VM. (Bug 1084987)
Workaround: PlateSpin Migrate Client uses the C:\Windows\system32\vmguest.iso file on the Hyper-V host to install the Hyper-V Integration Services driver on the guest VM during migration. However, Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V does not include the C:\Windows\system32\vmguest.iso file because Hyper-V 2016 uses a different method to manage the driver for its guest VMs.
To work around this issue, do one of the following to ensure that the Hyper-V Integration Services driver is installed on guest VMs on your Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V host:
Enable Migrate to install a Hyper-V Integration Services driver during the migration. Before you begin migrations to the Hyper-V 2016 host, copy the C:\Windows\system32\vmguest.iso file from a Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V host to the same location on your Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V host.
Ignore the error message during migration. After the migration, manually install the Hyper-V Integration Services driver on the guest VM. Use Windows Update on the Windows guest VM to add the Hyper-V Integration Services driver, or use alternative Microsoft installation methods as appropriate. For Linux guest VMs, use a package manager to install Integration Services for Linux that are built-in for the Linux distribution. See Manage Hyper-V Integration Services on the Microsoft documentation website.
NOTE:Ensure that Hyper-V Integration Services are properly configured so that the Integration Services driver is automatically installed or updated on the Windows guest VM during Windows updates. For Linux guest VMs, use a package manager to install or update Hyper-V Integration Services for Linux. They are built-in for Linux distributions, but there might be optional updates available. See Manage Hyper-V Integration Services on the Microsoft documentation website.
See Planning for Migration to Microsoft Hyper-V
in the User Guide.
The following issue is being researched:
Issue: When you migrate a Windows workload to a KVM virtual machine having one or more Virtio disks, the migration of the workload fails with recoverable error at configuring operating system step if the target VM has more than one NIC. (Bug 1085105)
Workaround: When you use Virtio disks in the target VM on a KVM host, ensure that the target VM has only one NIC. Alternatively, do not use a virtio disk when the target VM has multiple NICs. Using another disk type, such as SATA, works fine in this scenario.
The following issue is being researched:
Issue: When you migrate a workload to a VMware Cluster with a migration job that is configured to shut down the target post cutover, the migration job shuts down the target after successful migration. However, the target VM does not have any network connectivity when it is powered on. (Bug 1089454)
Workaround: Do one of the following:
Perform the migration without choosing to shut down the target VM post cutover.
Manually set the correct network on the target VM before you power up the target VM.
Issue: If you choose to perform incremental replication of a Linux Workload that has multiple NICs to a VMware Cluster target and configure the Replication Networks for Source setting of the migration job to use only one NIC on the source workload for replication traffic, the job gets stuck at Copy Data step. (Bug 1089593)
Workaround: Before performing the incremental replication, ensure that the Replication Networks for Source setting of the migration job includes all the networks on the source.
Issue: When you migrate a workload to a VMware 5.5 target, the migration completes successfully. However, the following message is displayed in the vSphere Web Client: (Bug 1090278)
vSphere Web Client Configuration Issue: Virtual Machine Disks Consolidation is needed.
vSphere Web Client Triggered Alarm: Virtual machine Consolidation Needed status
Workaround: Perform the following steps in the vSphere Web Client to consolidate all redundant redo logs on the virtual machine:
Right-click the VM.
Click Actions > All vCenter Actions > Snapshots > Consolidate.
In the pop-up dialog, click Yes.
Issue: The test cutover or cutover of a source Linux workload (running RHEL, CentOS, or Oracle Linux RHCK Linux distributions) from AWS to VMware vCloud hangs with the following message in the Web Interface:
Configuration services is taking a long time to start
In VMware vCloud Director (vApps\vAppname\virtual Machine\vmName), a dialog box requiring user intervention displays stating that the guest OS has locked the CDROM on the target VM and prompts you to override the CD-ROM lock. In the Web Interface, the cutover hang continues until you manually override the CDROM lockout in the VMware vCloud Director for the target environment. (bug 1087949)
Workaround: To override the CD-ROM lock, log in to the VMware vCloud Director and select Yes and then click OK when prompted for overriding the lock.
Issue: After Test Cutover, remove the migrated VM and clean up the workload. When you try to re-register the workload with the Migrate Agent, the following error occurs in the UI:
A pre-installed controller is not heart-beating, and no address/credential provided for installing a new one.
The documented procedure for clean up of the OFX Controller does not reflect the latest command requirements for Migrate 12.2.2. (Bug 1088939)
Workaround:
See the updated clean-up procedure for Controller Software
in Cleaning Up Linux Workloads
in the PlateSpin Migrate User Guide.
Issue: Automatic updates for anti-virus software on Windows source workloads sometimes have pending system changes that require a restart. While the required restart is pending, any replication seems to get stuck and cannot complete. (Bug 1091267)
Workaround: To prevent this potential replication conflict, ensure that you restart the source Windows workload after an anti-virus automatic update occurs that requires a restart. Perform the restart before the next replication begins.
To gracefully resolve this conflict for an in-progress replication:
Abort the replication by using the Migrate Client or Migrate Web Interface, as appropriate.
Reboot the source Windows workload.
In Migrate Client or Migrate Web Interface, initiate the replication again.
The replication should complete successfully.
Issue: When Shut Down is set as the post-migration end state for a Windows Server 2016 Cluster, the PlateSpin Migrate Web Interface shuts down only the active node of the cluster; the passive nodes are not shut down. Migrate Client properly shuts down all source nodes. (Bug 1087669)
Workaround: Manually shut down the passive nodes if they do not automatically shut down when Shut Down is set for the post-migration end state of a Windows Server 2016 Cluster.
Issue: In the Migrate Client, file-based transfer conversions fail at cutover for older Linux workloads that have an XFS /boot directory. The replication completes normally. However, when the target workload boots at cutover, it either has a kernel panic (UEFI workloads) or fails into a GRUB rescue console with XFS errors (BIOS workloads). This issue has been observed on RHEL/CentOS/OL 7.1 and older workloads. (Bug 1087726)
Workaround: You can try the migration using block-based data transfer.
Issue: In the Migrate Client, file-based transfer conversions gets stuck at Starting Virtual Machine for RHEL 6.3 UEFI workloads. Diagnostics for the migration job shows the following error:
Configure Target Machine Running Controller > Starting Virtual Machine Running Information:32:Task PowerOnVM_Task completed successfully Information:32:ChangeVMState: failed to change state to poweredOn, current state is poweredOff
This error has been observed only for RHEL 6.3 UEFI workload migrations using file-based data transfer. (Bug 1087728)
Workaround: You can try the migration using block-based data transfer.
Issue: For source Windows workloads in Citrix XenServer, the NIC is not detected in the Source Under Control state and is not configured. The file-based conversion process gets stuck in the Take Control step with the error message: Machine controller copy failed. (Bug 1085326)
Workaround: You can try the migration using block-based data transfer.
PlateSpin Migrate 12.2.2 resolves the following issues:
Issue: After cutover is completed for a migration to VMware, an extra floppy drive remains attached but not connected to the target VM. (Bug 1076091)
Fix: The PlateSpin Configuration parameter RemoveVMwareDevicesAtCutover controls whether floppy drives are removed after a successful cutover. The default value is False, which leaves an extra floppy drive attached but not connected to the VM. You can set the value to True to force the removal of the extra floppy drive. The removal process must shut down and restart the Guest OS.
Issue: When you configure migration jobs in PlateSpin Migrate 12.2.1, you cannot deselect any volumes on Linux workloads. It should be possible to deselect data volumes when configuring migration jobs. (Bug 1084597)
Fix: You can deselect data volumes on Linux workloads during configuration.
Issue: RHEL 5.x and 6.x workloads cannot boot after migration from Citrix XenServer 6.5 to KVM 7.2. (Bug 1079030)
Fix: PlateSpin Migrate checks for a Xen console entry in the grub.conf file (console=hvc0), and removes it on the target machine.
Issue: In migrations from Xen to KVM, the mkinitrd command failed because virtio drivers were not properly injected for the source and target kernels. (Bug 1076995)
Fix: PlateSpin Migrate checks for various source and target virtio support and injects virtio drivers as appropriate for the migration scenario.
Issue: Precompiled blkwatch drivers for kernel version 2.6.32-642 on RHEL 6 U8 fail at incremental replication for workloads with LVM volumes. Data is not transferred to the target machine. (Bug 1078055)
Fix: For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.8, Oracle Linux 6.8, and CentOS 6.8 workloads with LVM volumes, incremental replication is supported only for the latest available kernel (version 2.6.32-696.20.1) for the 6.8 distribution. Update the kernel, then use the following blkwatch drivers:
For a list of all precompiled blkwatch drivers, see List of Distributions
in the User Guide.
Issue: When Shut Down is set as the post-migration end state for a Windows Server 2012 R2 Cluster, the PlateSpin Migrate Web Interface shuts down only the active node of the cluster; the passive node is not shut down. Migrate Client properly shuts down all source nodes. (Bug 1085603)
Fix: PlateSpin Migrate Web Interface properly shuts down all source nodes when Shut Down is set for the post-migration end state of a Windows Server 2012 R2 Cluster.
Issue: Server Sync for Windows workloads fails at Test Cutover or Cutover because of an error in translating the network configuration on the target machine. The MAC address information was not available for the target machine. (Bug 1086507)
Fix: PlateSpin Migrate verifies that the MAC address for the target machine is available in the configuration information.
Issue: The Instance menu incorrectly indicated that some Cloud Instance Sizes did not support Premium Storage. This was only a display error; the product properly recognized the type of storage. (Bug 1071399)
Fix: The Instance menu properly indicates support for Premium Storage.
Issue: Microsoft Azure does not support Linux workloads that have the boot (/boot) partition on a different disk than the root (/) partition. (Bug 972062)
Fix: A validator prevents Azure containers from being selected as the target for Linux workloads if the boot (/boot) partition is on a different disk than the root (/) partition.
Issue: PlateSpin OFX Controller startup event times out during the Install Block-Based Components step if the VM is running too slowly. This issue affects migrations to VMware or Azure for workloads with low memory and CPU resources. (Bug 1033673)
Fix:
See PlateSpin OFX Controller Does Not Start on a Virtual Machine Source
in the User Guide.
Issue: MTU values less than 1500 are not honored for migration to VMs with synthetic adapters on target Hyper-V hosts. (Bug 1062546)
Workaround: None. The MTU setting is a limitation of Hyper-V for VMs with synthetic adapters.
Issue: When you use the X2P workflow to migrate a Windows 2003 or 2008 workload to a Microsoft Hyper-V host, the job stalls or goes into a recoverable error at the Uninstalling Controller step. This error occurs if the integration services driver is not available on the Hyper-V host. (Bugs 1053168, 1062716)
Fix: Manually add the missing integration services driver on the Hyper-V host. See KB Article.
Issue: When you migrate a workload to a KVM virtual machine that has its Virtio disk configured as the boot disk when both IDE and Virtio disks are available on the VM, the migration of the workload fails at Creating and Partitioning Volumes step. (Bug 1063004)
Fix: When you use Virtio disks in the target VM on a KVM host, ensure that you configure the target VM with the appropriate disk type as the boot disk:
Virtio and IDE disks: Configure the IDE disk as the boot disk and the Virtio disk as the data disk.
Virtio and non-IDE disks: Configure the Virtio disk as the boot disk and a non-IDE disk such as SATA or SCSI disk as the data disk.
Issue: Sometimes on Test Cutover or Cutover, the mouse does not work for the VM in the vSphere Web Client. That is, when you perform Actions > Open Console to open the VMware Web Console, the mouse pointer does not function properly within the virtual machine console window.
Fix: Manually restart the VM to allow VMware Tools to recognize the USB Controller for the mouse. In vSphere, select Actions > Power > Restart Guest OS.
Issue: After performing an Undiscover Server action, the Jobs view does not display a job entry for the Undiscover Server job. The user cannot easily determine whether the job completed successfully. Undiscover Server jobs were available in the Jobs view in PlateSpin Migrate 12.2. (Bug 1071172)
Fix: Jobs view properly shows the Undiscover Jobs.
Issue: If you edit the host name of a discovered workload, the new host name displays in the Migrate Client, but not in the Web Interface. (Bug 1042869)
Fix:
A discovery refresh option is not available for the Web Interface. See Removing and Re-Adding Workloads in the Web Interface
in the User Guide.
Issue: When you use the Migrate Client to undiscover a target residing on an unreachable vCenter, the status of the undiscovery job in the Migrate Client displays as Failed. However, the target is successfully undiscovered from both the Migrate Client and the Web Interface. (Bug 1062786)
Fix:
For potential cleanup of files copied during discovery to the target container, ensure that the target container is reachable before you remove (undiscover) the target container. See Undiscovering or Removing Source Workloads
in the User Guide.
Issue: When you use the X2P workflow to migrate a source workload to a Hyper-V VM that has dynamic memory enabled, the migration fails at Sending and Receiving files step. (Bug 1064801).
Fix: Disable the dynamic memory on the Hyper-V VM before you begin the X2P migration. You can enable the dynamic memory on the Hyper-V VM after cutover.
