Thanks Bart. Unfortunately "The VIB module does not comply with the security recommendations imposed by VMWare. You lose VMWare support by installing this package." This pretty much rules out this option. :( We need vCenter support, as well. nomad On Thu, May 14, 2020 at 10:06 AM Bart J.

That's certainly on the list of options. I'm doing data gathering right now to see what options there are.

Hi, Distributed Port Groups come from the "vNetwork Distributed Switch" (vDS); a feature of VMware vCenter. You just can't throw a non-ESXi hypervisor into your vCenter datacenter and expect it to work with their proprietary technology. The same way you just

Is anyone using NUT to signal/control vCenter and vServer (6.x) for shutdown when batteries are getting low? Any recommendations? We've found https://4sysops.com/archives/startup-and-shutdown-a-vmware-cluster-with-powercli-and-powershell/ but I'd prefer to do this from the master (which is running CentOS 8) and not pollute it by installing PS on it. thanks, nomad -------------- next part

With modern libvirt, when fetching the XML of a VMware guest libvirt passes us the datacenter path (dcpath). However with older libvirt we had to guess this value, or else the user had to supply it on the command line. This commit removes all the guessing code and the --dcpath parameter (which will now give an error). This requires libvirt >= 1.2.20 for virt-v2v, released Oct 2015. ---

Calculate dcPath correctly for vCenter conversions. Rich.

Hi, I am trying to import and convert some VMWare guests from a VMWare cluster with vCenter version 6, to a KVM (oVirt) host. The KVM node (RHEL 7.2) has virt-v2v 1.28.1, though I've also tried using Fedora 23 which has 1.32.4. The details are: vCenter server: nssesxi-mgmt Datacenter name: North Sutton Street esxi server which runs the VM: nssesxi-mgmt04 folder name: Systems VM name: wvm2

Since RHV 3.6.10, the default network name is 'ovirtmgmt' instead of 'rhvm'. This is just a documentation change. --- p2v/virt-p2v.pod | 10 +++++----- v2v/cmdline.ml | 2 +- v2v/virt-v2v.pod | 12 ++++++------ 3 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/p2v/virt-p2v.pod b/p2v/virt-p2v.pod index ea685be..4a5f587 100644 --- a/p2v/virt-p2v.pod +++

Libvirt >= 2.1.0 now allows you to open files which have a "json:" QEMU pseudo-URL as backingfile, whereas previously it would fail hard in this case (RHBZ#1134878). When virt-v2v performs conversions from Xen (over SSH) or vCenter (over HTTPS) it uses these pseudo-URLs as backingfiles. We had to tell people to use LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct to avoid libvirt in this situation. This

Hello, I've read a bit about libvirt in the web site, and I couldn't find anywhere whats the VMWare driver is capable of. I'm planning to build something that will let me manage multiple ESXI hosts (without vcenter) and before I hire a developer, I would like to ask if it supports the following items: * creating thin provisioning disks (when creating a new vm for example) * snapshots

vCenter 7 answers with an HTTP/2 status string, so we cannot extract the status code from it by using fixed positions in that string. Hence, pick the status code by reading what's after the whitespace. Tested with vCenter 6.5 and 7. --- v2v/vCenter.ml | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/v2v/vCenter.ml b/v2v/vCenter.ml index c28a4ced..4c128b0c 100644 ---
