Re: Virtualbox vdi Input Format and man pages
[stef204 sent me the full log since it contains sensitive information]
The log says that virt-v2v cannot see anything at all on the 34.1 GB
disk (as if the disk is blank). However I think the actual problem is
that you've given the wrong disk type in the XML:
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>

Virtualbox vdi Input Format and man pages
Hi,
I am new to v2v/libguestfs.
I need to convert a 30 GB virtual machine running Windows7 64 bit (a guest on a Linux system) from Virtualbox vdi format to qcow2 (or raw/img--another debate in itself) so I can use libvirt/qemu/kvm to run it and completely migrate away from Virtualbox.
The vdi machine is a mission critical production environment and I cannot afford to mess it up, etc. Will keep

blktap, vmdk, vdi, and disk management support
Just a quick fyi...
We''ve recently added support for blktap along with
support for managing virtual disks (disk file images).
There are some difference from a linux dom0.
This is available in b101 @
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/downloads/sol_ex_dvd_1/
This allows you to create and manage vmdk and vdi
(Virtual Box) disk files. By default, virt-install

driver type for .vdi images?
Hello libvirt experts,
I use libvirt (0.7.5-5ubuntu27.7) with KVM / qemu (0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.2).
Some machines use raw images but same use Virtualbox images (.vdi).
Since last Ubuntu 10.04 LTS update I can not start the vdi-images.
The "driver name= type=" option was new.

hi
I am having several pools of xcp with NFS shared storage as default SR
on each pool and i want to do following in this arrangement

so is this possible to do so?
vdi export is one of the solution but i want to do it seamlessly just
like it happens within the same pool or

Using Solaris iSCSI target in VirtualBox iSCSI Initiator
Hello,
I?m using ZFS to export some iscsi targets for the virtual box iscsi
initiator.
It works ok if I try to install the guest OS manually.
However, I?d like to be able to import my already prepared guest os vdi
images into the iscsi devices but I can?t figure out how to do it.
Each time I tried, I cannot boot.
It only works if I save the manually installed guest os and re-instate the

guestfs_list_partitions with vdi
I'm using a Windows raw disk image that is "converted" to the VDI
format by custom code that prepends a header to the image.
I use 'vdi' for GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT of
guestfs_add_drive_opts().
After launching the appliance, the call to guestfs_list_partitions()
results in an empty list.
Is there a way to add the drive but have an offset into the image

Authenticating VDI-in-a-Box to Samba4 AD
Hi,
I have successfully built an ADDC on a Centos 6.5 VM running on Citrix
XenServer 6.2. It seems to be working well.
Now I want to test Citrix VDI-in-a-Box. I've installed vdiManager 5.4.0 on

vdi size
Hi,
sorry for asking too much,but is it possible to set the vdi size for a new VM before installation because it is 8G by default or do I have to resize it after installing the VM.
Thanks & BRInas

Migrate existing Windows XP VirtualBox VM to Xen

I''m trying to migrate a VirtualBox virtual machine to Xen, but I

format to a raw format, I tried converting the VDI disk with all these
options:

Both Xen and VirtualBox On the Same Physical Host?
Hi all,
I have a Sun x2200 named Adra running OpenSolaris 2008.11 set up as a Dom0 per Levon''s instructions on this site. It hosts some production services and has been running nice and stable for a number of months now (with NetWare DomUs running GroupWise, believe it or not). The machine is pretty nicely speced out and there''s room for more virtualisation, so I was
