*** Bug 1095210 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** After some further discussion via email it's clear we have two use cases to facilitate ideally:
- Migration of a VMware image to Glance to run on OpenStack-managed ESXi hypervisors (via the Nova vCenter driver).
- Migration of a VMware image to Glance to run on OpenStack-managed KVM hypervisors (via the Nova Libvirt driver).
In the case of the former additional image properties need to be set:

For the first case, you could use image inspection, using the tool virt-inspector + some xpath scripting. http://libguestfs.org/virt-inspector.1.html http://libguestfs.org/virt-inspector.1.html#xpath-queries virt-v2v in RHEL 7.1 and Fedora >= 21 support the -o glance option which writes the converted guest to glance. http://libguestfs.org/virt-v2v.1.html#convert-disk-image-to-openstack-glance Note this is only suitable when the guest will be booted on KVM (because virt-v2v converts to KVM). If the guest is to be booted on ESXi hypervisors managed by OpenStack then you would not want to involve virt-v2v. See the following article which covers this topic: https://access.redhat.com/articles/1247463 "Converting VMware guests to Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform" This bug is assigned to me, but I don't know what there is to do. The customer can already try the preview packages we've been distributing since May 2014 by following the instructions here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2014-May/msg00090.html The -o glance option exists and is tested by QA, so we have a high confidence it should just work for them. The virt-v2v package will be Tech Preview in RHEL 7.1, and supported at some point in RHEL 7 after that. (In reply to Richard W.M. Jones from comment #8) > This bug is assigned to me, but I don't know what there is to do. Ship it, primarily. This RFE was raised because at the time this functionality did not exist in the tool (preview or otherwise). Normally we would track this through to completion and attachment to the errata (including QE verification of this RFE) - as the reporter I'm not sure how to answer the question as I don't see that I have done anything outside of normal RHEL process? Tingting, could you please QA ACK this bug so I can add it to the erratum. The RFE is already fixed because we support '-o glance' in libguestfs-1.28.1-1.18.el7 so no extra QA is required. For cinder import specifically, refer to bug 1155229. Test with ova file exported from esx server since esx server license expired.
Packages:
libguestfs-1.28.1-1.18.el7.x86_64
virt-v2v-1.28.1-1.18.el7.x86_64

1. Export guest ova image from esx server.

1.2 Use virt-v2v convert guest with "-i ova" option.
# virt-v2v -i ova esx-rhel6-ova.tar -o glance -of qcow2
