The steps are following:<br>

I didnot try for windows guests, but debian an rh guests are moved without trouble.<br>

Let alone there is much less overhead if the machine specs is not that great and there are no other hosts available<br>
<br>
Either way, importing KVM/libvirt VMs are currently a bit cumbersome (3.6 supports v2v from VMware only), but doable with few workarounds, and it’s certainly safer than VMware or VirtuaBox<br>
