Old virt-v2v was a bit confused as to how it handled <graphics type='sdl'> . If it saw it in the input, it would parse it (and not give a warning), but none of the output drivers would use it -- either it would be ignored or replaced with spice. New virt-v2v explicitly warns you that SDL is not going to be handled. I think I will make the warning clearer to fix this bug. The basic problem however is that SDL is not handled by the old or new virt-v2v. And indeed cannot be handled because management layers like OpenStack and RHEV don't work in a way that SDL could work. SDL is only relevant if you run qemu directly on your local machine. Upstream fix: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/626d85d80be994065951b5f17706ca33ca5fc152 This changes the warning to: virt-v2v: warning: virt-v2v does not support local displays, so <graphics type='sdl'> in the input libvirt XML was ignored which is hopefully clearer. Tested with:
libguestfs-1.27.61-1.1.el7.x86_64
virt-v2v-1.27.61-1.1.el7.x86_64

[ 320.0] Finishing off
The warning info shows as:
virt-v2v: warning: virt-v2v does not support local displays, so <graphics
type='sdl'> in the input libvirt XML was ignored
After conversion,the graphics become vnc.
