Configurations for Linux Conversions
There are several conversion options specific to Linux conversions. These options can
be configured in the Conversion tab of the vConverter Program Preferences
(Tools>Preferences). The Linux P2V Conversion section of this tab is shown below:
Reserved port on Target VA
The vConverter Virtual Appliance components
include the Post Processing Service (PPS). The
PPS receives the data from the Linux Source, and
sends response on these comments. This value
configures the port on which the PPS will listen
for traffic.
Reserved port on vConverter
server
This is the port on which the vConverter
conversion service monitors traffic from the
MTP and PPS modules. See Linux Conversion
Overview for more information.

target does not respond
longer than (in minutes)
This is the communication timeout value. If the
target or source does not respond to
communication within this time frame, the
conversion task will fail.
This opens the Advanced Linux P2V Conversion
Options dialogue.
