similar to: [PATCH v2v for discussion only] Remove dependency on old Perl inspection code.

This is a fix for: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642930 These patches remove all use of the Perl inspection API (although leaving the code, since it is used by virt-v2v). The tools have been modified so they use the core inspection API. Virt inspector has been basically rewritten to remove excess cruft and to only use the core API (see the final commit for more details). Rich.

[Continuing a discussion we had on IRC last week ...] How to create meaningful regression tests for the inspection code? We'd like developers to be able to test that changes to the inspection code don't break inspection of existing guests. We might not be able to run these tests routinely, and we might have to accept that they have to download hundreds of megabytes of test data. Idea

In fact, not limited to local files, but is limited to guests which use ‘yum’. So I think the function needs a better name unless you're planning to combine it with customize/customize_run.ml:guest_install_command (which would be overkill). > Signed-off-by:

This patch is just for discussion. There are still a couple of issues that I'm trying to fix. One is that all of the test guests I have, even ones with static IPs, have multiple interfaces, some using DHCP, so the conditions for adding the Powershell script don't kick in. This makes testing very awkward. However a bigger issue is that I think the premise is wrong. In some registries

Fixes some of the more egregious problems with v1, and also applies properly to the head of git without needing any other patches. Rich.

Hi, We all agree that it's not specific to virt-v2v. I managed to reproduce the same double fault on "normal" L2 boot - without libguestfs interference. And as Paolo wrote already, he will take a look at it. Thanks, Rom On Tue, Jan 21, 2014 at 3:05 PM, Richard W.M.

Hi Thank you for your quick response, do you know when the build 1.27.53 will be available ?

Good point. Fix is kinda ugly though. How about: output=$( guestfish

Virt-v2v aims to convert guests without any per-guest intervention/ configuration/fiddling. Unfortunately there are some command line options of virt-v2v which don't meet this ideal. Although we don't normally change the command line of our tools, there are two options I'd like to remove (by turning them into warnings & no-ops). Please follow up with comments if this is going to

Hi, Thank you Richard for your work, but I have also like Jeff Forbes a new issue : libguestfs: trace: hivex_node_set_value = 0 libguestfs: trace: upload "/usr/share/virtio-win/drivers/amd64/Win2008/viostor.sys" "/Windows/Drivers/VirtIO" libguestfs: trace: upload = -1 (error) libguestfs: trace: hivex_close libguestfs: trace: hivex_close = 0 virt-v2v: error: libguestfs error:

There were two related bugs in the virt-v2v error messages when source inspection failed. Firstly it would print the message about running 'virt-v2v -v -x' twice: virt-v2v: error: inspection could not detect the source guest (or physical machine). Assuming that you are running virt-v2v/virt-p2v on a source which is supported (and not, for example, a blank disk), then this should
