      Description of problem:

      When performing a cold migration with a VMware vCenter provider and "Skip CA" enabled, the migration fails during the ImageConversion phase.

      The failure is due to a missing vddk-thumbprint parameter in the virt-v2v command. The command is constructed with an empty thumbprint value, as shown below:

      -io vddk-thumbprint=

      This causes VixDiskLib_ConnectEx to fail with the following error: vbnetCopyEdit

       

      VixDiskLib: A thumbprint is required for SSL certificate validation.
      VixDiskLib_ConnectEx: One of the parameters was invalid

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

       

      2.9.0 - on-pr-e59063af24430a99c201385520392cc1c1421019
