Installing virt-v2v on Ubuntu KVM hosts does not install nbdkit which is required in the conversion of VMware VCenter guests. To install it, please execute:

Ubuntu don’t seem to ship the virtio-win package with drivers, which causes virt-v2v not to convert the VMWare Windows guests to virtio profiles. This could result in slow IDE drives and Intel E1000 NICs. As a workaround, we can follow the below steps to install the package from the RPM on all KVM hosts running the virt-v2v:

apt install virtio-win (if the package is not available, then manual steps will be required to install the virtio drivers for windows)
In addition to this, we need to install the below package as well to avoid the error “virt-v2v: error: One of rhsrvany.exe or pvvxsvc.exe is missing in /usr/share/virt-tools“.
The OVF tool (ovftool) must be installed on the destination KVM hosts if the hosts should export VM files (OVF) from vCenter. If not, the management server exports them (the management server doesn't require ovftool installed).
