Run a Detailed Check on the Target vCenter Before Conversion or Import

Before you perform a management domain convert operation or a VI workload domain import operation, you must perform a detailed check to ensure that the existing vSphere environment's configuration is supported for convert or import.

Procedure

1. SSH to the SDDC Manager appliance as user vcf.
2. Navigate to the directory where you copied the VCF Import Tool. For example:

   cd /home/vcf/vcfimport/vcf_brownfield

3. Run the following command to check that the vSphere environment can be converted or imported.

   python3 vcf_brownfield.py check --vcenter '<my-vcenter-address>' --ssoUser '<my-sso-username>'

4. If any checks fail, refer to the guardrails YAML file for information on the failed check. Refer to the troubleshooting section of this guide for more information on remediation.
