Doc Type:	Enhancement
Doc Text:	Previously, when importing a Virtual Machine, if the import failed, the output of the virt-v2v tool was not available for investigating the reason for the failure, and the import had to be reproduced manually. In this release, the output of virt-v2v is now stored in the /var/log/vdsm/import directory. All logs older than 30 days are automatically removed.

Description Tomáš Golembiovský 2016-06-27 10:09:46 EDT

oVirt relies on virt-v2v when importing machines from VMware or Xen hypervisor. However, there is currently no way to get the output of virt-v2v from the import. Detailed log of virt-v2v (with the -v -x options added) is often essential when investigating import failures.

Virt-v2v should be always run with the '-v -x' arguments and the output should be stored in a file to be accessible on the VDSM host.

Comment 1 Red Hat Bugzilla Rules Engine 2016-06-27 10:12:04 EDT

Bug tickets must have version flags set prior to targeting them to a release. Please ask maintainer to set the correct version flags and only then set the target milestone.
