Hi all;
I installed the following today :
qemu-kvm libvirt virt-install bridge-utils virt-manager libvirt-devel
virt-top libguestfs-tools guestfs-tools
I followed this guide to install virt-manager and a bridged network.
I used virt-v2v to convert a VMware image :
# virt-v2v -i vmx /data/vmware/Fedora35-Wynnbet/Fedora35-Wynnbet.vmx -o
local -of qcow2 -os /data/kvm/Imported/Fedora35-Wynnbet
Then I edited the resulting xml file
(/data/kvm/Imported/Fedora35-Wynnbet/Fedora35-Wynnbet.xml)
and I commented out the network interface (the VMware one):
<!-- <interface type='network'> -->
<!-- <source network='ethernet0'/> -->
<!-- <model type='virtio'/> -->
<!-- <mac address='00:0C:29:0B:53:5E'/> -->
<!-- </interface> -->
Next I added the new vm to virt-manager:
# virsh define /data/kvm/Imported/Fedora35-Wynnbet/Fedora35-Wynnbet.xml
It worked, I started the vm from virt-manager, logged in and used
virt-manager to create a new interface.
Now I have 2 issues:
1) I cannot get it to resize the VM with the window, the *View -> Scale
Display -> Auto Resize VM with Window *option is greyed out
2) the VMware vm was setup with a PPTP based VPN, but in the converted
kvm / virt-mananger vm the vpn will not connect, it simply says an error
occurred.
Thanks in advance
