Citrix Xenconvert failed with Failed to discover 1 of 2 volumes on the destination disk! or Enable Automount on windows server Enterprise edition and run Disk Management once to take effect

Today i should convert a machine with XenConvert to XenServer, but it come with these errors:

Failed to discover 1 of 2 volumes on the destination disk!
Enable Automount on windows server Enterprise edition and run Disk Management once to take effect

What i did to fix it was:

First enable automount

C:\> DiskPart
DISKPART> automount enable
DISKPART> exit

If it still not working try this:

  1. Close XenConvert.
  2. Open a command window.
  3. Change to the XenConvert installation folder
  4. Mount the VHD:
    cvhdmount -p 1 <VHD file path>
  5. Open Windows Disk Management, then wait for the disk to appear online in Windows Disk Management, maybe you need to rescan
  6. Verify that the volumes are accessible
  7. Dismount the VHD
    cvhdmount -e 1
  8. Last thing to is editing XenConvert.ini file in c:\program files\citrix\xenconvert\xenconvert.ini
    And put this under [Parameters]
    VolumeDiscoveryTimeoutAsSeconds=120

Then try run XenConvert again.

Citrix Provisioning Server “An unexpected MAPI error occurred.” when you try to change an image mode

When you change the mode from private to standard, you may get this error: “An unexpected MAPI error occurred.”. If you click on “More details”, there stand: ”Failed to map vDisk, no Driver.”.

The solution to this problem could be, changing the the Microsoft Volume Licensing, from KMS to ether None og MAK. And then push the OK buttom. If its work you can just change the Microsoft Volume Licensing back to KMS.
