similar to: [PATCH] virt-v2v: Create a libvirt-friendly volume name

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

From: "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones at redhat.com> This is the default since libguestfs 1.6. It does not need to be explicitly set.

'distro' isn't used anywhere for Windows guests. However, if it's set, it's required to be matched in virt-v2v.conf. Rather than have to update the config again, just don't set it for Windows guests. --- lib/Sys/VirtConvert/Converter.pm | 3 ++- 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/Sys/VirtConvert/Converter.pm

Hi! I'm trying to convert some Xen guests running Centos 5.8 to KVM on Centos 6.3. Hopefully this is the right place to ask this question, if not, let me know and I'll go there instead! :) My setup: Centos 5.8 Host running Xen with a Centos 5.8 guest, and I want to transfer this guest to a different Centos 6.3 host running KVM. I am able to tweak the target server all I want, but the

During a Windows conversion, _prepare_virtio_drivers aborts the conversion completely if the configured virtio driver path does not exist. If the path exists but is empty, the conversion completes correctly by defaulting to the non-virtio drivers. This patch treats a missing directory just like missing drivers, by reporting a message, then defaulting to non-virtio drivers. ---

In some cases (specifically, SUSE grub2 environments) it is possible to fail to update the block entries in device.map. In turn, this causes an invalid path to be returned in perl-Bootloader code, which causes the conversion to fail with the following message: is_file_opts: is_file: is_file_stub: path must start with a / character This patch prevents the problem by adding device.map (for

In preparation for an upcoming patch which adds support for SUSE guest conversions, it makes sense to have an intermediate steps that changes the RedHat.pm converter into a more generic Linux converter. The SUSE changes will then be limited in scope to only what is required for SUSE support. This series of patches accomplishes the following: - Renames RedHat.pm to Linux.pm - Modifies Linux.pm

Mike, This is great. I have a couple of minor comments inline, but this looks good. I do have a major concern, though, which is this is basically a fork of RedHat.pm. There are well over 1,000 identical lines of code between the 2 modules. Many of the differences are relatively minor, and could be handled with additional cases. I've also fixed a couple of bits in RedHat.pm since you forked

Hello, I've trying to move a 32bit CentOS 6.4 on VirtualBox to oVirt on Fedora 19 64bit via virt-v2v. The command I'm currently using is: virt-v2v -i libvirtxml -of qcow2 -oa sparse -o rhev -osd xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/usr/local/ovirt/exports --network ovirtmgmt /usr1/home/williams/Downloads/OpenAthens/VMs/OpenAthensLARuntime2.2.xml The exciting bit of the XML is: <devices>

During the conversion process, hd* block devices under Xen are mapped to sd* devices for use under guestfs. These sd devices are later remapped to vd* (or sd/hd) devices, for future use under kvm. The current code fails to track the original hd* device names. This causes subsequent remappings of the block devices (in such places as /etc/fstab, and /boot/grub/menu.lst), to skip the hd* devices,

Hi, I'm trying to do a physical-to-virtual migration for a Windows 2003 Server to RHEV 3.0 and I'm getting errors in the conversion. I created a Virt-P2V.iso using Fedora 16 (i686) using virt-v2v-0.8.7 and virt-p2v-image-builder-0.8.7 instead of the 0.8.5 version available in the repos. The conversion server is the same server where I created the ISO. I edited the /etc/virt-v2v.conf

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 series of patches adds support for converting SUSE guests through virt-v2v. These changes should not impact non-SUSE guest conversions.

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
