I have a template designed for VMware VMs, in OVA format.
Is there a way I can import this template to oVirt, in order to create an oVirt VM from it?
virt-v2v seems designed to import VMs, not templates, and it whines about no storage devices in the Guest (when using "-i ova -o rhev -os <NFS_PATH_TO_EXPORT_DOMAIN>").
I guess we're talking about old virt-v2v here? Shahar is writing a new OVA importer at the moment.
Thanks, Bob
P.S. If of interest, the OVA tarball contains foo.ovf, foo.mf, and system.vmdk.
how is a tempalte different than a VM in VMWare land? in ovirt its: - not having snapshots - a notation on the ovf
Matt any idea?
I've never looked in detail, but my understanding is that they're essentially identical, and that a template just has a flag set on it to mark it as a template. Please don't take that as gospel, though.
