Detailed log file for converting guest with disk type volume

Description
virt-v2v fail to convert guest with disk type volume

Version:
virt-v2v-1.27.53-1.1.el7.x86_64
libvirt-1.2.8-3.el7.x86_64
libguestfs-1.27.53-1.1.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.On rhel7,libvirt/qemu-kvm have support for disk type volume,prepare a guest with disk type volume.
# virsh dumpxml rhel6.6-tzheng
    <disk type='volume' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'/>
      <source pool='default' volume='rhel6.6.img'/>
      <backingStore/>
      <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
      <alias name='virtio-disk0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x08' function='0x0'/>
    </disk>

2.Use virt-v2v to convert the guest.
# virt-v2v -o rhev -os 10.66.6.8:/var/v2v_export --network rhevm rhel6.6-tzheng
[   0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt rhel6.6-tzheng
virt-v2v: warning: <disk type='volume'> was ignored
[   0.0] Creating an overlay to protect the source from being modified
[   0.0] Opening the overlay
[   5.0] Initializing the target -o rhev -os 10.66.6.8:/var/v2v_export
virt-v2v: warning: cannot write files to the NFS server as 36:36, even 
though we appear to be running as root. This probably means the NFS client 
or idmapd is not configured properly.

You will have to chown the files that virt-v2v creates after the run, 
otherwise RHEV-M will not be able to import the VM.
[   5.0] Inspecting the overlay
virt-v2v: error: no root device found in this operating system image.

If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the 
complete output:

  virt-v2v -v -x [...]

Actual results:
warning info shows:virt-v2v: warning: <disk type='volume'> was ignored
virt-v2v fail to convert guest with disk type volume.

Expected results:
virt-v2v can convert guest with disk type volume.

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2014-09-26 08:09:44 UTC
As this is a new feature, not supported by old virt-v2v, I am
moving this bug to a future version of RHEL 7.

Comment 5 tingting zheng 2015-04-27 07:46:06 UTC
Tested with:
libguestfs-1.28.1-1.29.el7.x86_64
virt-v2v-1.28.1-1.29.el7.x86_64

Steps:
1.Prepare a guest with disk type volume:
# virsh dumpxml rhel7
    <disk type='volume' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/>
      <source pool='default' volume='rhel7.0.qcow2'/>
      <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/>
    </disk>


2.Use virt-v2v to convert the above guest.
[root@localhost ~]# virt-v2v -o rhev -os 10.66.90.115:/vol/v2v_auto/auto_export -n rhevm rhel7 -on disk-type-test-bytzheng
[   0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt rhel7
[   0.0] Creating an overlay to protect the source from being modified
[   1.0] Opening the overlay
[   9.0] Initializing the target -o rhev -os 10.66.90.115:/vol/v2v_auto/auto_export
virt-v2v: warning: cannot write files to the NFS server as 36:36, even 
though we appear to be running as root. This probably means the NFS client 
or idmapd is not configured properly.

You will have to chown the files that virt-v2v creates after the run, 
otherwise RHEV-M will not be able to import the VM.
[   9.0] Inspecting the overlay
[  25.0] Checking for sufficient free disk space in the guest
[  25.0] Estimating space required on target for each disk
[  25.0] Converting Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.1 Beta (Maipo) to run on KVM
virt-v2v: This guest has virtio drivers installed.
[ 111.0] Mapping filesystem data to avoid copying unused and blank areas
[ 112.0] Closing the overlay
[ 112.0] Copying disk 1/1 to /tmp/v2v.4kA0Mx/f7eca9dd-8763-4e32-acb6-50a07c439e6a/images/7093e759-e224-4cf7-af41-54939073507d/333c3627-e228-4a37-a2d8-a351f771cecb (qcow2)
    (100.00/100%)
[ 218.0] Creating output metadata
[ 218.0] Finishing off

3.After conversion,guest can be imported and booted successfully on rhev.
