similar to: virt-v2v should add kernel console= to Xen->KVM converted guest's grub.conf

augeas now supports securetty. This resolves a failure when securetty isn't present in the guest.

This is a proposed patch which changes the RedHat.pm converter to Linux.pm, and adds support for SUSE guest conversion. This is first approach recommended by Matt Booth in: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2013-September/msg00076.html Some aspects of this patch still need additional testing, and a couple of changes are not foolproof (such as the lack of grub2 support in the menu.lst

The following patches add RHEL 6 guest support to virt-v2v. This was actually quite a lot easier than I expected. * [PATCH 1/4] Update virt-v2v.conf for RHEL 6 virtio support * [PATCH 2/4] Check kudzu exists before attempting to disable it * [PATCH 3/4] Use dracut rather than mkinitrd if it's available * [PATCH 4/4] Properly convert RHEL 6 guest console

Select non-comment labels using an augeas path to return the correct nodes in the first instance, rather than applying a regular expression to all results. Iterate over returned matches using a char** iterator. Use asprintf() to ensure the path string buffer is the correct size. --- src/inspect_fs_unix.c | 50 +++++++++++++++++++++--------------------------- 1 files changed, 22 insertions(+),

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

There were 2 issues in the code which checked for an existing grub entry before adding a new one. Firstly, it didn't take account of the fact that the passed-in kernel path is relative to root, whereas the grub entry is relative to the grub filesystem, which is normally /boot. Secondly, it expected return from inside eval{} to exit the function, when in fact it only exits the eval. ---

This change is part of an ongoing effort to remove use of $desc and inspect the OS directly as required during conversion. --- lib/Sys/VirtConvert/Connection/LibVirtTarget.pm | 4 +- lib/Sys/VirtConvert/Connection/RHEVTarget.pm | 41 +++++++++--------- lib/Sys/VirtConvert/Converter.pm | 35 ++++++++++++---- lib/Sys/VirtConvert/Converter/RedHat.pm | 45

Hi list, I am running a virtualized server. Dom0 uses Xen 3.2.1 with Debian Etch and a custom kernel 2.6.21 created by my webhosting company. I install my domU using debootstrap for a Debian Etch with 2.6.18-6-xen-amd64 kernel. Everything works well except the fact that once the VM is started I cannot "xm console" into it. It only works while it is booting and while it is shutting

Alle, After upgrading from 6.4 to 6.5, our serial console configuration non longer work.

Hi, I need some help to clarify TTY and virtual consoles. Thanks a lot. 1. I learned that to switch from one TTY to another, one must be at the physical machine. Does the same apply to virtual consoles? 2. My /etc/inittab includes the following. Does that mean there's only one instance of TTY on my CentOS? ... #

Hello, RHEL 5.7 has just been released, so here are some interesting Xen related bugfixes and enhancements in el5.7: Overview of Xen update in 5.7: http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2011-1070.html Technical notes about Xen changes in 5.7: https://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/5.7_Technical_Notes/xen.html Also kernel has a lot of fixes and updates:

[PATCH 1/7] mount: Add mount_vfs_nochroot This is significantly reworked from before. umount is gone as discussed, and variable motion is minimised. [PATCH 2/7] btrfs: Update btrfs_subvolume_list to take Already provisionally ACKed. Previous comment was that cleanup could be tidier. I looked into creating a new cleanup function for fs_buf, but it isn't possible (or simple, anyway) in this
