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.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-p2v-1.36.5-1.el7

1.Not add non-user with password in sudoers file 
# cat /etc/sudoers

## Allow root to run any commands anywhere 
root    ALL=(ALL)       ALL

2. Boot the source machine into p2v client via iso
3. After virt-p2v client launched, fill information as following:
Conversion server: 10.66.xx.xx : 22
User name:mm(a non-root user)
Password:******
4. Check "Use sudo when running virt-v2v" button 
5.Press "Test connection" button and then shows error info "virt-v2v is not installed on the conversion server, or it might be a too old version"
6.If continue press "Test connection" button repeatedly,correct error info "sudo for user"mm"requires a password.Edit/etc/sudoers on the conversion server to ensure the "NOPASSWD:"option is set for this user" may show out
 

Actual results:
As above description

Should show error info "sudo for user"mm"requires a password.Edit/etc/sudoers on the conversion server to ensure the "NOPASSWD:"option is set for this user" in step5 with 100 percent


Additional info:
1.It is a regressed problem from bug 1349342 
2.Also can reproduce the problem on virt-p2v-1.36.3-2.el7 and virt-p2v-1.32.7-2.el7
Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2017-10-11 12:20:53 UTC 
Not able to reproduce this with virt-p2v / virt-v2v 1.37.29.
I'll try it shortly with RHEL 7.5 packages instead.
Comment 3 Richard W.M. Jones 2017-10-11 13:49:09 UTC 
I *can* reproduce this with virt-p2v 1.37.29 connecting to a RHEL 7.5
server with virt-v2v 1.36.6-2.el7 installed.
Comment 4 Richard W.M. Jones 2017-10-11 14:17:23 UTC 
Patch posted:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-October/msg00113.html

Note this patch is for virt-p2v, so it will unfortunately require
a rebuild of the p2v ISO.
