I should post this here -
I am trying to do a P2V migration for a Windows server and I want to use
virt-p2v and virt-v2v. But I obviously don't know what I'm doing. The
goal is to have this physical Windows server come alive as a RHEL
libvirt guest virtual machine.
I built a Virt-p2v-image-builder CD and successfully booted a source
Windows server from the CD. It prompts me for a conversion server, as
expected.
Now my struggle - what do I do on the conversion server? This is the
RHEL 6.1 host where the virtual machines will live. I've been
experimenting with virt-v2v commands but now I am out of ideas. Below
is the latest challenge - I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.

What's up with that? A certificate error???
With virt-v2v, I tell it the host and guest virtual machine to migrate.
But what if I am migrating a physical machine booted from that CD? So
any guidance or documentation would be greatly appreciated.
