    Server Migration Center:What do I do if the "Anolis OS does not provide i686 packages, please remove them before migration" error message appears?

    Last Updated:May 11, 2024

    Problem description

    During the migration of an operating system, the "Anolis OS does not provide i686 packages, please remove them before migration" error message is reported.

    Cause

    i686 software packages are not supported in Anolis, Alibaba Cloud Linux, and their derivative versions. If i686 software packages exist in the operating system to be migrated, the migration may fail.

    Solution

    1. Connect to the Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance whose operating system you want to migrate. For more information, see Connect to a Linux instance by using a password or key.

    2. Run the following command to view the installed i686 software packages: 

      rpm -qa | grep i686

    3. Run the following command to uninstall the i686 software packages:

      Warning

      We recommend that you uninstall i686 software packages after you evaluate the impact on your business. 

      yum remove -y <package-name>

      Replace <package-name> with the name of the package that you want to uninstall.

    4. After the error is resolved, run the SMC client and retry the migration job. For more information, see Run the SMC client.
