Hi Richard,

Thanks for your response,

We have followed the steps mentioned in https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-November/msg00015.html

Now we are able to connect the V2V Conversion Server from Physical server after booting from livecd. 

Once ssh connection established,  "Start Conversion"  opens up another UI which has necessary info. of hardware (eg. CPU, RAM, HDD Capacity, No. of NICs etc..)

After starting conversation, at the time of decompressing kernel, after loading modules by iso we are getting below error, 

file -zb /sysroot/lib/modules/3.17.4-301.fc21.x86_64/kernel/arch/x86/crypto/blowfish-x86_64.ko.xz
libguestfs: trace: file = "XZ compressed data"
libguestfs: trace: file_architecture = NULL (error)
virt-v2v: error: libguestfs error: file_architecture: unknown architecture: 
/lib/modules/3.17.4-301.fc21.x86_64/kernel/arch/x86/crypto/blowfish-x86_64.ko.xz

If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the 
complete output:

  virt-v2v -v -x [...]
libguestfs: trace: close
libguestfs: closing guestfs handle 0xb7aea0 (state 2)
libguestfs: trace: internal_autosync


It would be very helpful if you can provide some pointers on this.

I have attached log file for reference.  


Thanks,
Tejas

Have a look at what I wrote here:

  https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-November/msg00015.html

which will show you how you can diagnose the real problem.

While you can use virt-manager for testing things, that's not the
correct way to run virt-p2v to convert a physical machine.
