similar to: XVA.PY Trouble

Hi all, I`m evaluating methods for nightly "snapshot" a physical win2003 to xcp vm. I know it would be a lot easier and reliable just to to one convert one time and start to generate real vm snapshots, but at this time I cannot use this method. I tested the sequence: disk2vdh -> xenconvert (to xcp), but a big deal of using this method is that xenconvert does not send

I didn''t want to re-open this old post that I found: http://xen.1045712.n5.nabble.com/xen-users-Need-to-migrate-a-centos-image-from-xen-source-to-xenserver-td5532281.html however I am in the same predicament. Can anyone explain how to extract a Windows Server 2008 VM from Xen and import it into XenServer? -- View this message in context:

Hello everyone. I have the following problem that could help would appreciate. 1) Environment: HOST 1: xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-amd64 with all VM in LVM disk. HOST 2: XCP 0.5 2) The VM that I wish migrate is a domU in XEN and is debian lenny over LVM: ................................................................................................... # Configuration file for the Xen instance

Have an Onapp system we are migrating away from to xenserver and it uses Xen source images I believe. I had no problem moving the MS Windows servers using the xenconvert utility, but not being a linux guy the conversion process of moving files from Onapp to xenserver is not clear. I think the files on Onapp are .img files, but they don''t use extensions from what I can tell when they

I''m trying to follow the guide to set up Lenny 5.0 VMs on my newly installed XCP machine. Following what the wiki suggests I downloaded the lenny.xva from http://www.xen.org/files/XenCloud/Software/lenny.xva, saving to domain zero. (note that this file was updated March 1, 2011) When I try to import lenny.xva to my Xen Cloud Platform host using the command: xe vm-import

I'm thinking on how to prove you a sample XVA I have to create (and populate) a VM because an empty image will result in an empty XVA And a VM is 300-400Mb as minimum Il 15 nov 2017 10:30 PM, "Max Reitz" <mreitz@redhat.com> ha scritto: > On 2017-11-15 21:41, Gandalf Corvotempesta wrote: > > 2017-11-15 21:29 GMT+01:00 Richard W.M.

Hi list, I have recently migrated to XCP from Vmware Server 2 and have run into issues importing the VM''s Following citrix''s guide I tried using XenCenter to do the import directly on the vmdk files this resulted in XenCenter logging this error: "Failed to import. ---> System.Exception: Failed to import virtual disk file. ---> System.Xml.XmlException: Root element
