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

Good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has any in site as to how to import a VMware vmdk into xVM on OpenSolaris 2009.06 (xVM 3.1). I have a VMware VM created on VMware Server 2.0 and would like to move it over to this xVM server. I appreciate any advice anyone may have. Cheers, -Chris -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

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

Just a quick fyi... We''ve recently added support for blktap along with support for managing virtual disks (disk file images). There are some difference from a linux dom0. This is available in b101 @ http://www.opensolaris.org/os/downloads/sol_ex_dvd_1/ This allows you to create and manage vmdk and vdi (Virtual Box) disk files. By default, virt-install will now use a vmdk vdisk when

Hey Oddsock I couldn't find your email address so sorry for posting to the list. I know we've had a similar discussion in the past but I'm hoping something can be arranged to solve this problem. I've just tried your new OddCastv2 (for Winamp2) with the SQRSoft crossfader hoping that the old problem had been overcome, however, it is much worse. Winamp simply exits without any

Hi Everyone, I am a graduate student who will be using R to do my analysis. I need to do a spatial analysis, and the first step is to calculate the geographic distance between my study sites. I am hoping to use earth.dist because it allows for multiple pairwise distances to be calculated at one time. I have done a sample calculation, and I seem to have a problem between the steps of using

[stef204 sent me the full log since it contains sensitive information] The log says that virt-v2v cannot see anything at all on the 34.1 GB disk (as if the disk is blank). However I think the actual problem is that you've given the wrong disk type in the XML: <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>

Hello libvirt experts, I use libvirt (0.7.5-5ubuntu27.7) with KVM / qemu (0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.2). Some machines use raw images but same use Virtualbox images (.vdi). Since last Ubuntu 10.04 LTS update I can not start the vdi-images. The "driver name= type=" option was new. <devices> <emulator>/usr/bin/kvm</emulator> <disk type='file'

I''m currently getting a huge number of (failed) attempts to access my home server at UDP port 27845. I think most if not all the attacks come from China or Korea. I see there is a list of Chinese and Korean networks at <http://www.countryipblocks.net/country-blocks/>. Is there a standard way of using such a list in shorewall? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net

During some discussions and handwaving, including discussions with some experts on the Xenserver/XCP storage architecture, we came up with what we think might be a plausible proposal for an architecture for communication between toolstack and driver domain, for storage at least. I offered to write it up. The abstract proposal is as I understand the consensus from our conversation. The concrete

Hi, I am new to v2v/libguestfs. I need to convert a 30 GB virtual machine running Windows7 64 bit (a guest on a Linux system) from Virtualbox vdi format to qcow2 (or raw/img--another debate in itself) so I can use libvirt/qemu/kvm to run it and completely migrate away from Virtualbox. The vdi machine is a mission critical production environment and I cannot afford to mess it up, etc. Will keep

I am unable to mount a vdi image with virt-df. I get this error in the libvirt log. 2012-06-24 02:37:22.484+0000: 2364: error : qemuMonitorIO:583 : internal error End of file from monitor I don't really know from this output what the problem is and some assistance would be appreciated. I'm attaching the output of the libguest test program. Brian

Hello, anybody has a clue why this happens? The scenario: Each night I create LVM snapshot of my volume which contains some virtual disk images (VirtualBox VDIs). Then I rsync the content of one of the snapshot directories to a backup server. Each file size is between 1.3 GB and 6GB. I run the following commmand: sudo -u rsyncbackup rsync -avzP --exclude-from /home/rsyncbackup/excludefile -e

Hello, I?m using ZFS to export some iscsi targets for the virtual box iscsi initiator. It works ok if I try to install the guest OS manually. However, I?d like to be able to import my already prepared guest os vdi images into the iscsi devices but I can?t figure out how to do it. Each time I tried, I cannot boot. It only works if I save the manually installed guest os and re-instate the same

hi is it possible to export vdi just as we export vm if yes then how to export it using HTTP? thanks _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

If i will use a virtualbox image with xen Must ionly convert it to raw and copy the hole image to a lvm or harddisk Or are it more advanced? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi dear all: I have browsed almost all architecture of libGuestFs and use it on Fedora 18. It really seems greate! However, 1. No virtual disk (*.vdi, *.vmdk...) based snashot analysis code Current LibGuestFs could recognize and virtual disk format (e.g. *.VDI) and the file syste inside it (e.g. NTFS ), but find no support for snapshot virtual disk.

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

Hi All, Okay. Now I am confused. I have a bunch of virtual machines running under Virtual Box 3.2.12. I want to run them under KVM and drop Virtual Box from these systems. Supposedly "qemu-img convert" now supports direct conversion from vdi to whatever KVM uses. So I fired up the man page and got really confused. Then I fired up Google and got worse confused. Might I impose on

hi I am having several pools of xcp with NFS shared storage as default SR on each pool and i want to do following in this arrangement -I want to share vdis among all pools, i.e. for example if I want to detach a vdi from a vm in pool-1 to a vm in pool-2. so is this possible to do so? vdi export is one of the solution but i want to do it seamlessly just like it happens within the same pool or
