Hi, I myself have no experience with this so far, but I can quote "blaster" from the ML: Blaster wrote:
I haven’t tried this yet, but if I had to move a VM from ESXi to oVirt this is how I would do it… (actually, this is how I did it with Windows 7 guests…)
Shutdown guest on ESXi (or use GhettoVCB to make a snapshot backup if you don’t want an outtage) NFS copy guest from ESXi server to temp storage somewhere qemu-img convert guest.vmdk -O raw guest.raw Create an oVirt guest with the appropriate OS type Add a disk of the same GB to the guest After oVirt finishes creating the disk, copy the guest.raw file over the disk image oVirt made boot guest and install qemu-agent, ovirt-agent, spice-agent (or better yet, do this before you shutdown on ESXi) remove VMware tools.
The importing and virt2v procedure seems far to complex and error prone to me.
Maybe he can add something :) -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Regards Sven Kieske Systemadministrator Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co.
