.SH "書式"

\& export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct
\& virt\-v2v \-ic \*(Aqxen+ssh://root@xen.example.com\*(Aq GUEST_NAME [\-o* options]
.Ve
.SH "説明"
.IX Header "説明"
This page documents how to use \fBvirt\-v2v\fR\|(1) to convert guests from \s-1RHEL 5\s0
Xen, or \s-1SLES\s0 and OpenSUSE Xen hosts.
.SH "INPUT FROM XEN"
.IX Header "INPUT FROM XEN"
.SS "Set up ssh-agent access to Xen host"
.IX Subsection "Set up ssh-agent access to Xen host"
Currently you must enable passwordless \s-1SSH\s0 access to the remote Xen host
from the virt\-v2v conversion server.
.PP
You must also use ssh-agent, and add your ssh public key to
\&\fI/root/.ssh/authorized_keys\fR (on the Xen host).
.PP
After doing this, you should check that passwordless access works from the
virt\-v2v server to the Xen host.  For example:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& $ ssh root@xen.example.com
\& [ logs straight into the shell, no password is requested ]
.Ve
.PP
Note that password-interactive and Kerberos access are \fBnot\fR supported.
You \fBhave\fR to set up ssh access using ssh-agent and authorized_keys.
.PP
With some modern ssh implementations, legacy crypto policies required to
interoperate with \s-1RHEL 5\s0 sshd are disabled.  To enable them you may need to
run this command on the conversion server (ie. ssh client), but read
\&\fBupdate\-crypto\-policies\fR\|(8) first:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& # update\-crypto\-policies LEGACY
.Ve
.SS "Test libvirt connection to remote Xen host"
.IX Subsection "Test libvirt connection to remote Xen host"
Use the \fBvirsh\fR\|(1) command to list the guests on the remote Xen host:
.PP
.Vb 5
\& $ virsh \-c xen+ssh://root@xen.example.com list \-\-all
\&  Id    Name                           State
\& \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
\&  0     Domain\-0                       running
\&  \-     rhel49\-x86_64\-pv               shut off
.Ve
.PP
You should also try dumping the metadata from any guest on your server, like
this:
.PP
.Vb 5
\& $ virsh \-c xen+ssh://root@xen.example.com dumpxml rhel49\-x86_64\-pv
\& <domain type=\*(Aqxen\*(Aq>
\&   <name>rhel49\-x86_64\-pv</name>
\&   [...]
\& </domain>
.Ve
.PP
\&\fBIf the above commands do not work, then virt\-v2v is not going to work
either\fR.  Fix your libvirt configuration or the remote server before
continuing.
.PP
\&\fBIf the guest disks are located on a host block device\fR, then the
conversion will fail.  See \*(L"Xen or ssh conversions from block devices\*(R"
below for a workaround.
.SS "Importing a guest"
.IX Subsection "Importing a guest"
To import a particular guest from a Xen server, do:
.PP
.Vb 4
\& $ LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct \e
\&       virt\-v2v \-ic \*(Aqxen+ssh://root@xen.example.com\*(Aq \e
\&           rhel49\-x86_64\-pv \e
\&           \-o local \-os /var/tmp
.Ve
.PP
where \f(CW\*(C`rhel49\-x86_64\-pv\*(C'\fR is the name of the guest (which must be shut
down).
.PP
In this case the output flags are set to write the converted guest to a
temporary directory as this is just an example, but you can also write to
libvirt or any other supported target.
.PP
Setting the backend to \f(CW\*(C`direct\*(C'\fR is a temporary
workaround until libvirt bug 1140166
is fixed.
.SS "Xen or ssh conversions from block devices"
.IX Subsection "Xen or ssh conversions from block devices"
Currently virt\-v2v cannot directly access a Xen guest (or any guest located
remotely over ssh) if that guest’s disks are located on host block devices.
.PP
To tell if a Xen guest uses host block devices, look at the guest \s-1XML.\s0  You
will see:
.PP
.Vb 3
\&  <disk type=\*(Aqblock\*(Aq device=\*(Aqdisk\*(Aq>
\&    ...
\&    <source dev=\*(Aq/dev/VG/guest\*(Aq/>
.Ve
.PP
where \f(CW\*(C`type=\*(Aqblock\*(Aq\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`source dev=\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`/dev/...\*(C'\fR are all indications
that the disk is located on a host block device.
.PP
This happens because the qemu ssh block driver that we use to access remote
disks uses the ssh sftp protocol, and this protocol cannot correctly detect
the size of host block devices.
.PP
The workaround is to copy the guest over to the conversion server, using the
separate \fBvirt\-v2v\-copy\-to\-local\fR\|(1) tool, followed by running virt\-v2v.
You will need sufficient space on the conversion server to store a full copy
of the guest.
.PP
.Vb 3
\& virt\-v2v\-copy\-to\-local \-ic xen+ssh://root@xen.example.com guest
\& virt\-v2v \-i libvirtxml guest.xml \-o local \-os /var/tmp
\& rm guest.xml guest\-disk*
