Hey David,
I agree with the issue being outside Nova.
Now, Windows doesn't support significant hardware changes very well. 
I'm just wondering if you prepared the image after testing: removed VMware drivers and installed virtio drivers.

Cheers!

Hi!

Can someone help me? I have an issue migrating VMWare VMs to OpenStack with KVM-QEMU ... the VMDK file converted to qcow2 format doesn't boot, especially with Windows Server 2016 and 2019. I tried a lot of ways, but I still finish with an unbootable disk in Nova.

I explained with more details my problem here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2017358
