<p>Hi Gajendra,</p>
<p> virt-v2v didn't support Debian/Ubuntu guests, it is apparently in a later version that is due to be included in RHEL/Centos 7.4</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>What I did to get a Metasploitable2 image into oVirt was.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p> </p>
<span style="font-size:12pt;background-color:white;" dir="ltr">
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">1. convert vmdk disk</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"> </div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"> qemu-img convert -f vmdk Metasploitable.vmdk -O raw Metasploitable.img
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">2. Find size of disk 8GB in this case<br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"> </div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"> qemu-img info Metasploitable.img
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">3. Create VM O/S Linux with disk of that size and of interface type IDE thin provision
<br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">4. In engine in the DATA_DOMAIN record the id of the disk just created</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">5. in the DATA_DOMAIN on one the hosts/nodes go to the images directory</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"> e.g. mount_point/UUID/images</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">6. cd to directory of the id of the disk recorded at step 5 (also probably last directory created)</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"> there should be 3 files and the one without an extension should be 8GB</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"> they should all start with the same UUID in this case 1805e3a4-0697-4c0a-8dfb-0c0011490bd2
<br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">7. dd if=/path/Metasploitable.img of=1805e3a4-0697-4c0a-8dfb-0c0011490bd2 bs=4M<br>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"> </div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;">8. Boot VM.</div>
<div style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><br>
It may be easier converting the disk and creating a new VM with it or seeing if Fedora has a more modern virt-v2v<br>
<br>
</div>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am running a ovirt engine and ovirt host on a single machine for testing purpose. I trying to convert and move Debian virtualbox vm which is created using vagrant into ovirt engine as template. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I tried to convert using virt-v2v as <a href="http://libguestfs.org/virt-v2v.1.html" class="OWAAutoLink" id="LPlnk660180">http://libguestfs.org/virt-v2v.1.html</a>. However, I get error as (Debian/ Linux cannot be converted).</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I have exported the vm from virtualbox and have the image as .ova. Is there any way to migrate?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks </p>
