Hi,
we're currently using oVirt engine3.0 and have about 50 VMs successfully 
running ( thanks for your great work!!)

At the moment we do migrate ESX/KVM VMs and baremetal servers to oVirt.
For p2v migration we're using virt-p2v 0.87 (iso created from rpm 
virt-p2v-image-builder)
Migration is working fine, but the vdisk size is accordingly to original 
physical hdd size.
For example:
Server with 500 GB HDD size, partitions (swap,/,boot) shrinked to ~50 GB.
(df -h will show only 50 GB for / )


First I thought, shrinking partitions of the server will help out,
But unfortunately, the tool is using the whole hard disk space to convert 
(using dd ?)
...and so we have a successfully migrated VM in oVirt with 500GB vHDD size.

Is there any way or alternative software we can use for P2V migration?

Thanks in advance,
Sven.
