Hi all
I want to migrate VMs from ovirt node to proxmox.
the ovirt disk meta info like this

Code:
DOMAIN=1ca1fc94-94be-4c64-83b8-9912d5288941
CTIME=1513821604
FORMAT=RAW
DISKTYPE=2
LEGALITY=LEGAL
SIZE=419430400
VOLTYPE=LEAF
DESCRIPTION={"DiskAlias":"wordpress_205_Disk1","DiskDescription":""}
IMAGE=369379db-d080-4ec1-b8d5-fffa1a1745c8
PUUID=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
MTIME=0
POOL_UUID=
TYPE=SPARSE
GEN=0
EOF

seems like it`s a raw disk ?
however , I use qemu-img convert -O raw to vm_disk.raw and transfer to raw to proxmox
create a raw disk , replace the raw disk with that vm_disk.raw
but boot failed .
after some annoying messages like this (sorry , I can`t insert image... )

Volume group "ubuntu-vg" not found
cannot process volume group ubuntu-vg

brgin: Running /scripts/local-block ... mdadm: CREATE group disk not found
mdadm: no arrays found in config file or automatically
lvmetad is not active yet, using direct activation during sysinit
volume gorup "ubuntu-vg" not found
cannot process volume group ubuntu-vg
done


and repeat many times ...


now I get into a initramfs

Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:

= Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
-check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?
-check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing module (cat /proc/modules;ls /dev)
ALERT! /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root does not exist , Dropping to a shell

Busybox built-in shell

(initramfs)


I dont know what`s wrong here , any suggestions?
 
Are you running qemu-img convert from the ovirt node or on the proxmox node? I would copy the original ovirt raw file unto proxmox host, and then run the proxmox qemu-img convert on the host locally.

If that doesn't work, boot the original ovirt VM with the ISO of Clonezilla, make it device source (master), create a new VM on ProxMox with slightly larger drive size, boot with Clonezilla and make it target (slave) and do CloneZilla V2V clone over ethernet.
