iPhone Duo Simulator fails boot with “Data Migration Failed” on Xcode 27.1

I’m seeing a reproducible iPhone Duo Simulator boot failure in Xcode 27.1. Environment

  • Xcode 27.1 / 27A9275
  • macOS Tahoe 26.6.2, then 26.7.1
  • Apple silicon Mac
  • iPhone Duo / V68 / iPhone19,4
  • iOS 27.1 Simulator Runtime builds 24A94232 and 24A94425

Failure Running: xcrun simctl bootstatus <UDID> -b terminates with: Status=3, isTerminal=YES Data Migration Failed Fresh Duo devices reproduced the failure on both runtime builds. During fresh migrations, DataMigrator logged: Reporting migration failure due to migration progress window incident On one fresh-device run, all 35 recorded migration plugins completed successfully, but the aggregate migration result was false and no failed-plugin identifier was exposed. I also tested:

  • brand-new Duo simulator data
  • restarting the correct CoreSimulatorService
  • explicitly selecting runtime 24A94425
  • updating macOS from 26.6.2 to 26.7.1

An ordinary iPhone simulator on iOS 27.0 works on the same Mac. The failure occurs before any application is installed or launched. Feedback filed: FB25221101 Has anyone else seen this with the iPhone Duo Simulator in Xcode 27.1?
