Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: libvirt-1.2.17-13.el7_2.4 Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
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.

Description Marcel Kolaja 2016-02-08 12:12:54 UTC
This bug has been copied from bug #1263574 and has been proposed
to be backported to 7.2 z-stream (EUS).

Comment 6 mxie@redhat.com 2016-03-04 02:32:49 UTC
Verify the bug with the build:
libvirt-1.2.17-13.el7_2.4.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-229.29.1.el7
qemu-kvm-1.5.3-105.el7_2.3.x86_64
libguestfs-winsupport-7.2-1.el7.x86_64
virtio-win-1.8.0-4.el7.noarch
virt-v2v-1.28.1-1.55.el7_2.1.x86_64
libguestfs-1.28.1-1.55.el7_2.1.x86_64

Steps:
1. Setting up some folder structure in vCenter.  In vCenter I added this:

  v2v-vcenter
  -> Folder(my is called mxie)
     -> Datacenter(my is called mxie-data)
        -> Cluster(my is called mxie-cluster)
           -> vmware [ESXi node]

2.Check the dcpath of guest rhel6.7-mxie in via vCenter server's web address, eg: https://vcenter/folder

2.1 Read the underlying disk image,the URL is :https://10.66.145.47/folder/rhel6%2e7%2dmxie?dcPath=mxie%252fmxie%252ddata&dsName=datastore1

2.2 encode URL,dcpath=mxie/mxie-data


3.Check dcpath in libvirt xml:

3.1 #virsh -c vpx://root.145.47/mxie/mxie-data/mxie-cluster/10.66.144.40/?no_verify=1 
Enter root's password for 10.66.145.47: 
Welcome to virsh, the virtualization interactive terminal.

Type:  'help' for help with commands
       'quit' to quit

virsh # list --all
 Id    Name                           State
----------------------------------------------------
 164   VMware-vcenter-server-app      running
 -     app_vcenter600                 shut off
 -     Auto-esx6.0-win7-efi           shut off
 -     bug1260689-win2008R2-GPO-Macfee shut off
 -     rhel6.7-mxie                    shut off
 [etc]

3.2 Check dcpath in guest xml
virsh # dumpxml rhel6.7-mxie
<domain type='vmware' xmlns:vmware='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/vmware/1.0'>
  <name>rhel6.7-mxie</name>
  <uuid>423f07c2-18f5-6830-09bd-bff8e75c2f9b</uuid>
  <memory unit='KiB'>2097152</memory>
  <currentMemory unit='KiB'>2097152</currentMemory>
  <vcpu placement='static'>1</vcpu>
  <cputune>
    <shares>1000</shares>
  </cputune>
  <os>
    <type arch='x86_64'>hvm</type>
  </os>
  <clock offset='utc'/>
  <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff>
  <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot>
  <on_crash>destroy</on_crash>
  <devices>
    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <source file='[datastore1] rhel6.7-mxie/rhel6.7-mxie.vmdk'/>
      <target dev='sda' bus='scsi'/>
      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
    </disk>
    <controller type='scsi' index='0' model='vmpvscsi'/>
    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='00:50:56:bf:c1:73'/>
      <source bridge='VM Network'/>
      <model type='vmxnet3'/>
    </interface>
    <video>
      <model type='vmvga' vram='8192'/>
    </video>
  </devices>
  <vmware:datacenterpath>mxie/mxie-data</vmware:datacenterpath>
</domain>

Result now:
dcpath "<vmware:datacenterpath>mxie/mxie-data</vmware:datacenterpath>" has added in libvirt xml and match with the above one encoded from URL


So move the bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED
