[ovirt-users] Re: [External]: Re: Need to transfer a VM from oVirt to vSphere

[David M. Hornsby]

I have done this before quite a few times. What I did was:


  1.  Export the qcow2 or raw file and convert it: qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O 
vmdk
  2.  Import the vmdk into vsphere storage and convert it to thin with 
vmkfstools
  3.  Then create the vm definition.
  4.  There will be some minor driver and ethernet type stuff to fix.

This process has worked everytime. You probably could use a tool like virt v2v 
or veeam to accomplish this as well.

not that i know of. it depends on how resilient is vmware's ova import ... but 
if it is a single or a few vms then you can give up on settings and just import 
raw disks?

[ovirt-users] ovirt-node-ng-image-update 4.4.1 to 4.4.1.1

[David M. Hornsby]

All,

I applied the recent update 4.4.1 -> 4.4.1.1 to a host in a cluster and it 
failed. After reboot it was hund at the emergency console. I reinstalled 4.4.1 
fresh on the host. Prior to adding it back to the cluster I applied the same 
update with the same result. Is this just a bad update or is the post install 
script bad.

Thanks,
David.
