CentOS - Jul 2011 - Package: virt-goodies - partly solved

For CentOS KVM migrations use the virt-v2v package part of base.

No answers :-(

I've found the sourcecode of "vmware2libvirt" (part of
virt-goodies - a
python-file)  to convert  .vmx file to .xm file for using in virt-manager.
This programm  works fine.
Conversion of my VMWare-Image succeeded.

For everything, which interests it.

Bye

If your using CentOS 5.x you may have a problem with perl...here's some
notes I have on the subject


# virt-v2v -f virt-v2v.conf -ic esx://server.com/?no_verify=1 -op vm_local
VMname
Can't locate object method "show_progress" via package
"Sys::VirtV2V::Transfer::ESX::UA" at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Sys/VirtV2V/Transfer/ESX.pm line 62.
------

To resolve virt-v2v requires newer LWP::UserAgent...I think I had to add the
--force option but can't recall for sure
# cpan -i LWP::UserAgent

Thx for that advice

It looks good.
I'll give it a try tomorrow.
(Today I have no access to the server).
