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 Pino Toscano 2020-05-11 10:07:20 UTC
Description of problem:

The current virt-p2v version does not have support for RHEL 8, so the outputs of neither virt-p2v-make-disk nor virt-p2v-make-kickstart are usable with RHEL 8.

Considering that:
- virt-p2v is generally stable
- it queries virt-v2v for its capabilities, so there is no hardcoded requirement on virt-v2v versions
- there were few other minor improvements upstream
it makes sense to rebase virt-p2v to the latest upstream release available, as a way to avoid backporting patches with only the version number left unchanged.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Current upstream version of virt-p2v.

Comment 8 RHEL Program Management 2021-11-11 07:27:09 UTC
After evaluating this issue, there are no plans to address it further or fix it in an upcoming release.  Therefore, it is being closed.  If plans change such that this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release, then the bug can be reopened.

Comment 9 Richard W.M. Jones 2022-01-07 13:52:24 UTC
This bug was incorrectly closed by the "stale" bug tracker, a process we
do not have any control over.  Reopening.

Comment 10 Richard W.M. Jones 2023-02-01 15:17:59 UTC
So we are rebasing virt-p2v to the latest upstream and that will be based on RHEL 9.2.  I'm going to
close this bug because we don't need it for that.
