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

The iface:ide parameter (used in the libguestfs add_drive call) does not work with a libvirt backend. The error usually seen is: 'iface' parameter is not supported by the libvirt attach-method at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Sys/VirtConvert/GuestfsHandle.pm line 96. This issue was previously mentioned in this thread:

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

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, 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

Matt, Thanks for the extensive comments. I'll go through them in detail, but it won't be until next week. For the time being, here's a quick take on some of the main issues: > I do have a major concern, though, which is this is basically a fork of > RedHat.pm.

So I am getting this error on Fed18 virt-v2v trying to convert libvirtxml to Rhev 3.1 NFS Export domain: 'iface' parameter is not supported by the libvirt attach-method at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Sys/VirtConvert/GuestfsHandle.pm line 96. Which is mentioned in this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=895898 and this one:

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

This patch fixes an incorrect integer comparison that results in the following error: Argument "/files/boot/grub/menu.lst/title[1]/kernel" isn't numeric in numeric gt (>) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Sys/VirtConvert/Converter/RedHat.pm line 206. This problem is not fatal, but it can result in duplicate entries in menu.lst. --- lib/Sys/VirtConvert/Converter/RedHat.pm | 2

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

More evidence this is a real bug affecting users. I still have no idea why this bug happens.

inspect_os() shouldn't do this, but ultimately it's heuristic. As we know what the transfer device is, we can double-check the output. --- v2v/virt-v2v.pl | 18 +++++++++++++++++- 1 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/v2v/virt-v2v.pl b/v2v/virt-v2v.pl index fe07ae9..6e73102 100755 --- a/v2v/virt-v2v.pl +++ b/v2v/virt-v2v.pl @@ -496,11 +496,18 @@ my $g = new
