Actually you can import the NFS, but all VM disks should be on that NFS and the 
VM must be stopped.Also , don't forget the template (if you used template) - it 
also must be on the NFS.


Then importing is like a piece of cake.

Hello everybody!

At the moment I have here a standalone engine and two nodes. Storage 
type is NFS.

Now I want to setup a 3 node self hosted cluster with Glusterfs and 
import my VMs from the old engine.

I know, there is a guide for migration from standalone to self-hosted 
engine, but there is so many changes (new Subnet/DNS names, different 
type of storage, new CPU type) that I would like to skip this migration 
guide.

Is there a different way to migrate my VMs? Mounting my old storage and 
moving the disks to the Gluster would be nice, but I guess I can not 
just mount a storage with existing VM images.

Best regards

Jonathan
