For the past two months we’ve been trying to migrate a bunch (90 or so) VMs from XenServer to ESXi … However for some reason on some of them, the Converter Service would crash.
Up till Monday, I had no idea why. I decided to look into the error once again, and this time decided just to Google the failing module… And guess what ? Out came this Citrix forum post regarding the failing module. So, after knowing that rsintcor32.dll belongs to the Citrix System Monitoring Agent service (well, I could have guessed that from the DLLs path :P) I decided to simply stop the service.
And now, we can migrate the remaining VMs to ESXi and get rid of XenServer!
Why you want to get rid of XenServer? 🙂
Because Citrix XenServer, even if it is “free” for us, it ain’t really free once you consider the man power necessary to administrate a adequatly sized environment (we’re talking 40+ hosts and 800 VMs, plus another 20+ hosts and 250 VMs).
Thanks for the post. Saved me some time, thank you!
