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.

Description liuzi 2019-03-22 07:53:47 UTC
Description:
virt-v2v should show a message when qemu-guest-agent is installed in guest successfully during virt-v2v conversion

How reproducible:
100%

Version:
rhv-guest-tools-iso-4.3-3.el7ev.noarch
libguestfs-1.40.2-1.el7.x86_64
virt-v2v-1.40.2-1.el7.x86_64
libvirt-4.5.0-10.el7_6.4.x86_64

Steps:
1. Install the rhv-guest-tools-iso-4.3-3.el7ev.noarch on the rhel7.7 conversion server, and set the following environment variable:
export VIRTIO_WIN=/usr/share/rhv-guest-tools-iso/rhv-tools-setup.iso
2. Use virt-v2v to convert a rhel6-x86-64 guest
# virt-v2v -ic vpx://root.73.141/data/10.73.75.219/?no_verify=1 esx6.7-rhel6.10-x86_64 --password-file /tmp/passwd -o rhv-upload -oc https://ibm-x3250m5-03.rhts.eng.pek2.redhat.com/ovirt-engine/api -os nfs_data -op /tmp/rhvpasswd -oo rhv-cafile=/home/ca.pem -oo rhv-direct=true -oo rhv-cluster=nfs
Exception AttributeError: "'module' object has no attribute 'dump_plugin'" in <module 'threading' from '/usr/lib64/python2.7/threading.pyc'> ignored

[ 3.3] Opening the overlay

[ 144.4] Checking for sufficient free disk space in the guest
[ 144.4] Estimating space required on target for each disk

(raw)
(100.00/100%)
[2158.3] Creating output metadata
[2174.0] Finishing off

3. Conversion can be finished successfully,and boot guest on rhv

4. Check if the guest has correctly installed qume-guest-agent and the service is running normally.
# rpm -q qemu-guest-agent
qemu-guest-agent-0.12.1.2-2.506.el6_10.1.x86_64
# service qemu-ga status
qemu-ga (pid 1073) is running...
#service network restart

Actual results:
Virt-v2v successfully installed the qemu-guest-agent but there isn't show any message during conversion.

Expected results:
virt-v2v should show a message when qemu-guest-agent is installed in guest successfully during conversion

Comment 2 Pino Toscano 2019-03-26 17:46:53 UTC
Just sent a small patch series to show only when the qemu guest agent package is installed:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-March/msg00161.html

Comment 3 mxie@redhat.com 2019-04-12 08:35:51 UTC
Also should verify if the virt-v2v warning like "guest tools directory ‘linux/el7’ is missing from the virtio-win directory or ISO. guest tools are only provided in the RHV Guest Tools ISO.." is hidden if the target is not rhv

Comment 5 liuzi 2019-04-25 09:15:44 UTC
Verify bug with builds:
virt-v2v-1.40.2-3.el7.x86_64
libvirt-4.5.0-12.el7.x86_64
libguestfs-1.40.2-3.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.12.0-26.el7.x86_64
rhv-guest-tools-iso-4.3-6.el7ev.noarch

Steps:
Set environment for the conversion server:
a)Download package from:https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/packageinfo?packageID=64501

b)Install the rhv-guest-tools-iso-4.3-6.el7ev.noarch on the rhel7.7 conversion server, and set the following environment variable:
export VIRTIO_WIN=/usr/share/rhv-guest-tools-iso/rhv-tools-setup.iso

c)Mount /usr/share/rhv-guest-tools-iso/rhv-tools-setup.iso to /mnt,and check which linux os are supported in /mnt/linux directory.

[ 425.6] Finishing off


3.2 Conversion can be finished successfully and with no warning info about rhv-guest-tools.

Result:virt-v2v will only show a message when qemu-guest-agent is installed in guest successfully during conversion,and hide warning info about rhv-guest-tools for other cases.So change the bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
