| Doc Text | Cause: Libvirt exposes paths to disk images in its domain XML. However, the images are organized in datacenters and from just looking at a domain XML it's impossible to tell which datacenter is the disk image in. It's even hard to parse from connection URI. Consequence: Tools like libguestfs have troubles determining the datacenter that disk image is in. Fix: Expose the datacenter path in domain XML too under special tag: <vmware:datacenterpath>. Result: Everybody's happy since they now can get the datacenter path. |

This allows for accessing disk images on the VMware vCenter server without the need for the "--dcpath" command-line flag. | ||

This allows for accessing disk images on the VMware vCenter server without the need for the "--dcpath" command-line option. | The virt-v2v utility now processes the "<vmware:datacenterpath>" tag, newly added to the domain XML file by the libvirt library, and maps the paths to the disk image on a VMware vCenter server. This feature enables accessing disk images on the VMware vCenter server without the need for the "--dcpath" command-line option. |
