During our internal testing we also observed problems where NFS writes would hang, with virt-v2v but also with other tools (it's an NFS bug). This was fixed by updating the kernel on the virt-v2v client to the latest version.

Hi Richard, Can you tell me the minimal Kernel version needed to kill this issue ? I have this one : kernel-3.10.0-123.8.1.el7.x86_64 Alain Alain VONDRA Chargé d'exploitation des Systèmes d'Information Direction Administrative et Financière +33 1 44 39 77 76 UNICEF France 3 rue Duguay Trouin 75006 PARIS www.unicef.fr -----Message d'origine----- De : Richard W.M.
