Hi all,

I'm trying to convert a Debian 10.10 LXC container running under PVE 
6.2-6 into ESXi 7.0.2 VM.

I'm using VMware vCenter Converted Standalone 6.2.0 from May 2018 
(latest available).

Upon establishing SSH connection to the container I get:

"Unable to detect disks or volumes on the source machine.
Make sure that the source is a supported Linux distribution."

No such errors when I try the same thing against a bare metal Debian 
10.13 box.

Has anybody had any success with this tool?

Is there a better way and any hopes for not having to rebuild containers 
manually from scratch as VMs?

Regards,
Adam
