9:11 a.m.
I am trying to import a VM from libvirt/KVM from the oVirt web UI
using the Virtual Machines > Import. Here are the steps that I take.
- I select "KVM (via Libvirt)" as source
- I set the URI as "qemu+ssh://root@<hostname>/system". I have
previously generated an SSH key for vdsm on the VM node and copied the
key to the libvirt host.
- I unlick "Require authentication" (using SSH keys)
- I select the proxy host as the VM host I setup vdsm with the ssh keys.
- Click "Load" to retrieve a list of VMs on the libvirt/KVM system
- Select the VMs to migrate and click the right arrow to move to the
right side of the wizard (Virtual Machines to Import)
- Click "Next"
- Select the proper storage domain, i.e. master storage domain. (I
have tried both Preallocated and Thin-provisioned options for storage
and both fail to import. I have also tried selecting "Clone" for the
VMs without success.)
- Click "OK"
oVirt seems to start the import, but then gives a message that it
failed to import. I have gone through the vdsm.log and this seems to
be the relevant lines...
