Hi,

I was wondering if a UEFI-based VM migrated from VMware to KVM would work
correctly. Since VMware and KVM use different EFI distributions (VMware
ESXi vs. KVM's OVMF firmware), I suspect there might be compatibility
concerns.

Has anyone tested this migration? If so, were any modifications required to
ensure the VM functions properly on KVM? Any insights or experiences you
could share would be greatly appreciated.


Regards,

Pavan.
