Hi all,<br>
<br>
I'm using this hook script :
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=vdsm.git;a=blob;f=vdsm_hooks/vmdisk/before_vm_start.py;h=191d5c1af533e11d699b1d715d3c1ea60e28b787;hb=6817f1c6e3f5bc137d1f3bef45a2d0191465c7a3">http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=vdsm.git;a=blob;f=vdsm_hooks/vmdisk/before_vm_start.py;h=191d5c1af533e11d699b1d715d3c1ea60e28b787;hb=6817f1c6e3f5bc137d1f3bef45a2d0191465c7a3</a><br>
My goal is to boot a vm on a vm image imported form libvirt/kvm. I
want to use this single image, that is to say without importing it
into ovirt with tools like v2v.<br>
acathrow told me on irc that I'd have to change the boot order in
the xml, but I don't know how to proceed for many reasons:<br>
<ul>
<li>I can't create a vm through the UI which would boot on the
disk created by the hook script without first creating a disk on
the relevant storage domain. If I try I have those warnings : <br>
<br>
hook: Cannot run VM without at least one bootable disk.<br>
Alternatives:<br>
-Create a disk for this VM, and rerun the VM.<br>
-Change the boot sequence using the Edit VM command (Boot Option
Sub-Tab).<br>
-Use the Run-Once command to select a different boot option and
rerun the VM.</li>
<li>If I run a vm with the first disk from the storage domain and
an additional disk from the hook script, how could I change the
boot order in the xml definition file if I don't know the xml
definition of the main disk?</li>
</ul>
<p><br>
thanks all for your help<br>
