xen discuss - Apr 2008 - Running VMDK images under xVM?

Hi,

I just read in Vijay''s blog that xVM can directly convert and run VMDK
images.
http://blogs.sun.com/vsarathy/entry/virtualbox_and_sun_xvm

I can find any documentation on how to do it though...Anyone?

*will* is the key word in that blog :-) It''s not
supported yet.

I think that it might be possible with a combination of  the virtual  
box utility vditool and/or qemu-img.

But as mentioned - it''s not supported.
