Hello
Here's the technique we use :
- create manually the vm on ovirt with same disks (same size that original
but you can choose target type, thin provision or preallocated)
- on any node, force activating the disks to make them writable at the os
level (lvm, vgchange...)
- if the disk type is the same on target and destination, you can use dd
over netcat to copy the disks
- if the type is not the same, you might use qemu-img convert over netcat
If you have physical access to the node, you might use a flat backup
Another workaround is to backup/restore the vm with a backup tool that
works both with vmware and ovirt... I would say vprotect or vinchin
Best regards

Hi,
I am migrating some vmware VM's from an NFS Storage via rhv-upload in
virt-v2v, what is working good.
But now I try to move some bigger VM's with several disks and sadly after
a while (I would guess around an hour) the Ovirt-engine shows me "Paused by
system" instead of transfering, so when the next disk should be imported,
it will fail
In the ovirt-engine.log I see the following lines for the remaining 4
disks.

There are 2 strange things.
1. When I start virt-v2v it will create all 6 disks and set them to
transferring, but virt-v2v will import one after the other, what leads to
kind of unused/timing out transferring tickets.
2. When I copy the disk images to a local disk before, it works. Maybe
just because of faster transfer speeds.
Is there a possibility to transfer parallel or maybe extend the timeout?
Cause basically everything is working, but it's just timing out
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
