Hi All, Anyone tried to convert QEMU to hyper v? I tried this: qemu-img convert -f raw ?kvm-virtal-machine.img? -O vhdx -o subformat=dynamic ?hyperv-virtual-machine.vhdx? Then defined new HyperV stuff - and booted it did not boot got a dracut error. Anyone done that ? If so how ? Jerry

Hi ALL, Sorry for this if it is a stupid question, but: Is it possible to native boot centos from a VHD/VHDX file in a similar way to Windows 8.1? I am hoping to dual 'native' boot Windows 8.1 and CentOS; but then I want to Image the disk to deploy it to other classroom machines. Any help advice would be appreciated. I've had an unsuccessful play with easybcd's neogrub; and I

Thanks for the reply. The idea of using a VHD(X) was to enable use to use disk imaging tools such as ghost, wds etc to deploy images of this type of system to over 500 machines. We have not found an imaging solutions that can image and deploy via multicast a system set up in the standard way you describe.

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

Hi Darren, Any reason you cant use virtualisation and / or thin client kind of action? If for instance you have a linux hypervisor installed on each machine you could kick up a virtual machine with the required environment. dirty up the image and then replace the image with a clean centos / windows whenever you need it.

Package: xcp-xapi Version: 1.3.2-6 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Normally (in 'iso-based' XCP) is possible to attach VDI to dom0. That operation usually looks like: xe vbd-create vdi-uuid=... vm-uuid=(dom0 uuid) device=N xe vbd-plug I done those steps in xcp-xapi and got success (no error), but no xvd* device found. Here operations log: # xe vbd-create

Hi, I''ve been touring XCP and making my way around it for the last few days, and am having problems with some reasonably straightforward actions. I''ve poured a several hours into different ways of resolving the issue, but am coming up short. Here''s the main issue. The following command (plugging in a VBD to the dom0 VM), when, run, hangs for several minutes, and then

We have a project about Microsoft Hyper-V by using our storage. We want to use Samba to share our storage to Hyper-V. And we know from Microsoft homepage hyper-v(windows 2012) only support smb3.0 protocol, but right now the newest version of Samba don?t? fully support SMB3.0 protocol. I tried the version of Samba4.0.6, Samba3.6.9, but both failed to create virtual hosts using Hyper-V.

hello, I would only like to have guestmount in my toolkit to read-only vhd/vhdx images, so I try to compile libguestfs with a minimum of dependencies. I downloaded the 1.38-stable sources, installed the necessary dependencies and compiled them with the command : ./configure --disable-ocaml --disable-perl --disable-ruby --disable-haskell --disable-php --disable-erlang --disable-lua

Not too sure what to think about this, considering M$'s track record with OSS and other competitors.

I''ve just pushed vdiskadm translate to the 3.3 vdisk repo. You can now translate data from one virtual disk data type to another without creating a virtual disk. This allows the user to use a vmdk file and directly translate the data into a zvol without having to import it first to a vdisk and then export it to the zvol. # vdiskadm help translate translate - translate virtual disk data

Using VM's was a suggestion I put forward but some of our staff didn't like the idea! We can't virtualise Windows as we run many CAD and Media app's that require high end graphics card utilisation. The Linux image is mainly used for coding type activities and so virtualising that would seem sensible - unfortunately that is not my call.. Regards Darren Williams -----Original

I''ve just pushed vdiskadm import/export/convert to the 3.3 vdisk and vbox repos. You can now import a disk image from a block device or file to a vdisk, convert (in place) to a different type of vdisk and export from a vdisk to a block device or file. I''ve also pushed the full vhd support (sparse and fixed) and the ability to import a vmdk 1.1 optimized stream file. An

in fact, it was vhd and not hvd. if I understand correctly, guestmount uses qemu to allow the host to access the contents of the virtual machine disk : it makes it live to access its disk ? thank you for answering. 2018-06-28 16:30 GMT+02:00 Richard W.M.

Hi all, I'm happy to announce, that after many months of discussions, Microsoft has released their Hyper-V Linux drivers under the GPLv2. Following this message, will be the patches that add the drivers to the drivers/staging/ tree, and a whole bunch of cleanups. It's taken a long road to get here, and I'd like to thank the following people who made this possible: - Steve
