Thanx, I can confirm that this way i may transfer VMs, but I was thinking a more dirty and perhaps portable way.

Say I want to get to a external disk just one VM from DC A and copy/import it on DC B that has no access to the export domain of DC A.

I've seen also articles converting the VM disk to qcow or raw then importing it with some perl script.

I guess that the OVA import/export feature, still to be implemented, is what I need for this case.

Thanx,

Alex

Hi,

You could import the storage domain from a DC to another DC with all the VMs and disks.
See in [1], there is also a video explaining how to do it.

Fred

Hi all,

Is there any way of transferring VMs manually from DC to DC, without the DCs having connectivity with each other?

I was thinking to backup all the export domain directory, and then later rsync this directory VMs to a new NFS share, then import this NFS share as an export domain on the other DC.

What do you think?

Thanx,
Alex
