Import of standalone VMware sources with a VMDK file greater than 2GB to a hosted destination that resides on a network share that does not support large files, fails
If you select a standalone virtual machine source with VMDK file greater than 2GB and try to convert it to hosted destination residing on a remote network location that does not support large files (for example, Linux SMB or NFS share), the conversion task might fail with one of following error messages:
Unable to connect to the virtual disk
Remote server closed connection after 0 response bytes read
An error occurred during an operation on a virtual disk.
If conversion is successful, the following error message related to the VMDK file might appear when you power on the target virtual machine:
Internal Inconsistency errors
Workaround:
1. In the main application window of Converter Standalone, right-click the failed task and select Copy As New...
2. Go to the View/Edit Options page and select Data to Copy.
3. In the Data to Copy pane, select the volumes to copy and click Advanced.
4. On the Target Layout tab, select 2GB Split not pre-allocated or 2GB Split pre-allocated as the target disk type.
