Unfortunately that's not the case. I've had numerous issues importing/exporting vm imagery from clouds running different hypervisors. Importing/exporting from the same hypervisor type is fairly straight forward.

matter what cloud product (openstack/cloudstack/vmware/aws/etc...) you
provide to your customers, they should be able to redeploy their
application whereever they go or are given for IaaS.

This is a VERY high level of the steps, dealing with different
Hyper-visors will produce varying results.

Is there a low level guide to importing/exporting imagery between kvm, xen
and  vmware?

Something concise enough to work well with any cloud?

Hi Tao Lin,

Currently, the only way known to me is

1) Stop the instance in OpenStack
2) Import the instance as a template
3) Create a new instance, based on that template
4) Run the new instance in CloudStack
5) Discard the OpenStack instance

HTH & HAND.

  Hi,all:
     Is there any method to move instances from Openstack to Cloudstack?
Both
OS and CS are using KVM as hypervisor.


Best regards.
