Shahar Havivi 2016-02-04 09:07:48 UTC Doc Text In order to import VMs from Xen via RHEL the following steps must be taken in the vdsm host that will import the VMs:
1. User vdsm need to be enable:
open file /etc/passwd and find the line:
vdsm:x:36:36:Node Virtualization Manager:/var/lib/vdsm:/sbin/nologin
change it to that:
vdsm:x:36:36:Node Virtualization Manager:/var/lib/vdsm:/bin/bash
2. Generate ssh keys for vdsm user:
$ su - vdsm
$ ssh-keygen
3. Login to the Xen server via ssh in order to exchange keys with the Xen host.
$ ssh vdsm@xenhost

oVirt is using virt-v2v to import the VMs from Xen servers,
for more information on xen+ssh via virt-v2v can be found here

under the "INPUT FROM RHEL 5 XEN" section

In order to import VMs from Xen via RHEL passwordless SSH access has to be
enabled between VDSM host and Xen. The following steps must be taken under
vdsm user in the VDSM host that will perform the import of VMs:

1. Generate ssh keys for vdsm user:
$ sudo -u vdsm ssh-keygen

2. Login to the Xen server via ssh in order to exchange keys with the Xen
host:
$ sudo -u vdsm ssh root@xenhost

3. Transfer public key to allow the access to Xen host:
$ sudo -u vdsm ssh-copy-id root@xenhost
