Re: [ovirt-users] can't import vm from KVM host
Thanks for your answer. I do not think that I'm experiencing that same bug exactly.
The issue 1362525 (below) concerns a KVM VM with iSCSI disk being importend to RHEV that
does not perform well.
In my case, when oVirt GUI proposes me the list of machines on KVM host to import, each
machine as a "disk count" next to it.
- This "disk count" is correct if the VM has it's storage on a raw/qcow file
(local) - and import goes well
- But "disk count" is 0 (always) if the VM has it's storage on a block
device (ie iscsi) - and import is not possible at all!
It seems to me that current oVirt migration tool is unable to read/analyse distant VM
machines with block device storage... Maybe I'm analysing this issue wrongly.
Thanks,
nelson

Hello,
Hi,
We do have a bug on that issue:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1362525
and its handled.
Thanks,
Shahar.
I'm trying to import virtual machines from a KVM host (centos 7.2) to an oVirt 4.0.2
Cluster using the "import" feature on GUI.
If the original VM is using RAW/QCOW2 files as storage, everything works fine.
But if the original VM is using a special block special device as storage (like a LVM or
SAN volume), it's simply not recognized.
The VM does appear in the import list of the KVM host, but it's disk count is 0!
Is this a known technical obstacle or am I doing something wrong ?
below is the storage part of the xml describing the original VM :
<disk type='block' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'
io='native'/>
<source dev='/dev/mapper/vg_01-lv_sys'/>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x07' function='0x0'/>
</disk>
<disk type='block' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'
io='native'/>
<source dev='/dev/sdc'/>
<target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x08' function='0x0'/>
</disk>
We have hundreds of virtual machines in production with this type of configuration... How
can we migrate them safely to oVirt?
thanks
Nelson
