similar to: [PATCH v2 0/5] Add --print-target with machine-readable version.

RHV was connecting to the VMware source in order to find out the virtual disk size of the source disk(s), duplicating logic that virt-v2v already provides. This makes that information available using a new ‘virt-v2v --print-target option’. Note in order to get all the information, this has to actually perform the conversion step, so it takes 30 seconds or so before we reach the point where the

I'm interested to hear opinions on whether this makes the code clearer, or not. This is virt-v2v, but many other virt-* tools work the same way, and analogous changes could be made. Currently when command line argument parsing is done in 'cmdline.ml' the list of parsed parameters is passed to the main program in a very long tuple. Each parameter is strongly typed, but not named (so

This series is a second attempt to add a mode of virt-v2v operation where it leaves the config and disk image conversion, rollback on errors, registering with the destination hypervisor, etc. to a third-party toolset, and performs only tuning of the guest OS to run in the KVM-based hypervisor. The first 14 patches are just refactoring and rearrangement of the code, factoring the implementation

This option prints the estimated size of the data that will be copied from the source disk.

Patch v2 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-April/thread.html#00114 There's no change here except that I've rebased it against the latest master branch and retested. There was a comment by Pino (https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-April/msg00117.html) which isn't incorporated into this patch. Rich.

v4: - Same as v3, but depends on and uses new --machine-readable work. Rich.

v6: - Make the text output a bit nicer. - Changes as suggested to Measure_disk module temp file & json parsing. - Use jq to test JSON output. - Retest.

v5: - Normal output modified approx as suggested in previous email. - Machine readable output uses JSON.

This is analogous to --print-source, except that it prints the overlay and target disk information. The output looks like below. Note there is one overlay and one target section per disk. Overlay and Target information (--print-target option): overlay file: /home/rjones/d/libguestfs/tmp/v2vovlc687fe.qcow2 overlay device name: sda overlay virtual disk size: 6442450944

Essentially identical to v1 except that it now uses (overloads?) the --mac option to supply this data. Rich.

In this mode, converting of the VM configuration, setting up the rollback path for error cases, transforming the VM storage and so on is taken care of by a third-party toolset, and virt-v2v is only supposed to tune up the guest OS directly inside the source VM, to enable it to boot and run under the input hypervisor.

The first two patches implement the change discussed here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2016-April/msg00178.html The third patch fixes the mapping of inspection data to OVF VmType which was inherited directly from old virt-v2v and had never been changed. It had a number of problems. The fourth patch is only slightly related to the others. It adds an extra slow test to ensure that

I rethought this again, as I think that it's a dangerous assumption to bake qemu-img measure output into our API. This patch series runs qemu-img measure behind the scenes, but then parses the output and sums it to a single number which we print. Doing that required a bit of reworking, moving the Jansson [JSON parser] bindings from virt-builder into the common directory and a couple of other
