similar to: RHEL 6 guest support

RHEL 4's mkinitrd will fail to recognise that root is on LVM when running on a recent kernel/udev due to changes in naming. This patch detects LVM root for RHEL 4, and uses a dirty hack to frig mkinitrd if required.

These 2 patches are mostly code motion. They were prompted by an apparent augeas error in BZ 613967 which didn't display useful error message. The error seems to happen in Converter::Linux. GuestOS::RedHat had a handy function which displayed verbose augeas error messages. This function moves into the new module where it can be used by both modules. The second patch is an consequential tidy

This patch series includes a repost of Milan's unmodified RHN support patch because I haven't pushed it yet. On top of that patch, it includes the capabilities patch in as many bits as I could make it into. The big one is 7/8. I've tested all of the following guests both with and without RHN registration: Xen RHEL 54 PV Xen RHEL 51 PV Xen RHEL 48 PV ESX RHEL 54 FV

This is a new conversion module to convert SUSE Linux and openSUSE guests. The converter is based on the RedHat module, and should offer the same functionality on both SUSE and RedHat hosts. There are a few additional messages in this module, such as reporting of packages when installing through zypper or the local virt-v2v repo. These messages don't necessarily flow unless verbose switches

These patches combine HVSource and HVTarget into a single Converter. This should make it more obvious where to hack without losing any practical flexibility. GuestOS remains separate. GuestOS is now a misnomer, because it's really only a Linux distro abstraction. It will be useless for Windows, for example. Functions which you'd expect to be different on a non-RH distro should live in

Previously, only the LibVirtXML connection translated network and bridge names in imported metadata. This change moves this functionality in Converter, making it available to LibVirt connections as well. At the same time, the format of the config file is switched to XML. The primary driver for this is that the allowable syntax of a foreign network/bridge name is not known. Rather than create a

We were assuming that guests wouldn't use multiple interfaces, or if they did, drive letters wouldn't clash between the interfaces. An ESX guest with a CDROM device breaks this because hard disks will be presented a SCSI, starting at sda, and CDROM devices are presented as IDE, starting at hda. This is in contrast to QEMU, which starts at hdc by default. Firstly, this change causes disks

I'm using virt-v2v (0.8.3 currently) on EL6 to convert Xen guests to KVM. I see how virt-v2v converts any existing references to xvc0 and hvc0 serial console devices in /etc/inittab, /etc/securetty, and grub.conf. However, my Xen DomU grub.conf's don't have any mention of console= on the kernel lines, because the Xen DomU kernel defaults to using the correct xvc0 console. As a

Although I can't reproduce, I seem to have had an incomplete transfer which wasn't picked up by the existing error handling.

I noticed that virt-v2v, which is written exclusively in perl, failed to generate virt-v2v.pot.

The changelog action needs to checkout git2cl as a submodule. For some reason, when called through the Git module, command('submodule', 'update') was doing something unfathomable, and different to just calling 'git submodule update'. As Git is just a command line wrapper anyway, I've sidestepped this by just calling the command directly. --- Build.PL | 18
