Hi all again :) I assume I'm pretty lost at this step…. it's reasonable the pv disk image not to work as the hvm one did because Xen should aware of where the kernel is for example… so… Could anyone point me a little on how to manage to convert an xva template of Xenserver/Xencloud for obtaining a glance upload able image allowable too to be run in the Xen cloud platform through nova-compute deploying the uploaded glance image???
Any help will be very appreciated….
