How would I go about converting my Xen image files to a LV image? Thanks! --- Chris Edwards _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Remember ''dd'' is your friend. Verify the size of the image. Create an LVM logical volume = or > the size of the file image dd the file over update your xen config to reference the new location of the OS image p.s. sorry about the top post --Jim Chris Edwards wrote:> > How would I go about converting my Xen image files to a LV image? > > > > Thanks! > > > > --- > > > > Chris Edwards > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > Xen-users mailing list > Xen-users@lists.xensource.com > http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users_______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Hallo! If Xen image contains ext3 filesystem, then i have been using rsync like this # mount -o loop image.file.img /tmp/image # mount /dev/volume/volname /tmp/volname # rsync -avH --numeric-ids /tmp/image/ /tmp/volname/ It is better if nothing is accessing thouse filesystems during rsync.
