Context
I have then to transfer the VMWare image to a temporary KVM host.
We are on the path to move from RHEL to CentOS. And no, I'm not interested in OL.
The current infrasctructure uses "one-file fixed 50GB image disk". Duh!.
I want to move this temporarily to KVM, in order to reinstall hosts without braking the developpers work rythm.
Documentation
I found 2 usefull links for the migration.
Tutorial
Copy/pasting from the links above did not work, though.
This is how I made it:
sudo virt-install --import \ --disk path=/var/vmware/dev53/DEV53-flat.vmdk \ -n old-dev53 -r 1024
