How do you specify the input method for the guest? Snapping the output 
of virt-v2v
virt-v2v -f virt-v2v.conf -ic esx://<esx.server>/ -op <pool> <domain>

where:

· <esx.server> is the hostname of the ESX server hosting the guest to
be converted.

N.B. This hostname must match the hostname reported in the ESX
server’s SSL certificate, or verification will fail.

· <pool> is the name of the local storage pool where copies of the
guest’s storage will be created.

· <domain> is the name of the guest on the ESX server which is to be
converted.
