...I`m evaluating methods for nightly "snapshot" a physical win2003 to xcp vm. I know it would be a lot easier and reliable just to to one convert one time and start to generate real vm snapshots, but at this time I cannot use this method. I tested the sequence: disk2vdh -> xenconvert (to xcp), but a big deal of using this method is that xenconvert does not send only the .vhd file through the network, but all the disk size whose partition was converted. So, if my win2003 has a physical HD of 250GB and C: is on first partition of 10GB, the generated .vhd will have ~10GB, but xenc...

Have an Onapp system we are migrating away from to xenserver and it uses Xen source images I believe. I had no problem moving the MS Windows servers using the xenconvert utility, but not being a linux guy the conversion process of moving files from Onapp to xenserver is not clear. I think the files on Onapp are .img files, but they don''t use extensions from what I can tell when they are stored on the backup volume.. Can anyone point me in the right dir...

I''m attempting to convert a CentOs 5.6 x64 machine from Xen (Open Source) to Citrix XenServer and I am having some trouble towards the final stages. I need to take the .XVA created by XVA.PY and use XenConvert to manipulate this into another file format (OVF). Here''s the process I use: 1. Poweroff the VM 2. Create a new disk in 3 times the size of the primary 3. Sign in to root and verify the new disk shows up via fdisk -l 4. Mount the new disk to a temporary location via mount /dev/sda3 /b...

We''re going to be converting 13 servers this weekend to XenServer 6.2. Most of them are Windows and we''ll be using XenConvert. However, we do have 8 Linux based servers (3 CentOS6 and 5 Ubuntu 8.04+) that will need to be converted. I''m wondering what you guys have *successfully* used in the past to get Linux based servers converted to XenServer? I''ve been reading quite a bit on the subject and it seem...
