Migration worked!

Please feel free to copy on Blogs, Wikis and so on!

There is a better way probably(Libvirt on another Server/Linux Workstation an import through KVM), but this just works.

=> How to Migrate VMs from Proxmox:

Requirements:

- Port 54322/tcp open on oVirt Hosts
- ovirt-imageio-daemon running on Hosts
- ovirt-imageio-proxy running on (Hosted)-Engine.

-- Attention: this will move disks through different Storages from Proxmox. --

1 - Add a Storage to Proxmox, like NFS or a local share.
2 - Click on a VM from Proxmox and choose the option "Move Disk" on the taskbar above.
3 - Choose qcow2 as a export file and save the file on the added storage.
4 - On oVirt-Engine go to Disks and click on Upload(Taskbar above) and add the size of disk from Proxmox( to check how big it is: on Proxmox through "Hardware" on the left sidebar from VM).
5 - Create a new VM and attach the qcow2 disk.
6 - Check the Network Configs, if you did something with udev-rules you will need to change the mac address.


Many Thanks to Gianluca and Nathanäel!

Best Regards,

Hi again!

well, I'm trying to migrate all my VMs from Proxmox to oVirt. Proxmox doesn't have libvirt and I can dump the files using vzdump <vm-id> <directory> and the output is a *.vma file I think from Proxmox. I can't even find the files, Proxmox create Logical Volumes for every VM.

I converted that to *.qcow2 using qemu-img convert, the conversion worked(at least no errors) but I can't import it using  a script that I found on web* and the export storage domain(oVirt didn't found it).

I would like to know if there is a way to do that. I read a lot about and found that one could build a conversion server and use virt-v2v to import. But it will require a RH Enterprise for that, right? I don't have a subscription and I would like to know if is possible without the subscription?

And sorry for the offtopic question, if there is a "redhat" which would like to answer me privately, if I buy a subscription for 1 Server and I have NN CentOS Servers, it will be possible to use all benefits since I have a valid subscription(of course, support just for the RH Server)?
