Description
A timeout occurred during communication with the migration target VM host or the VM management server.
Corrective Action
Check that there are no problems in communication with the migration target VM host or the VM management server.
Modify the timeout value.
Information
When specifying thickeager using the VMDiskFormat option of the Start-ImportTask command, a timeout may occur during import due to the performance of the migration target host. In that case, modify the timeout value, WebService, for import.
For details, refer to "17.10.3.3 Definition Files for Importing Using the VM Converter CLI" in the "User's Guide for Infrastructure Administrators (Resource Management) CE".
