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 yuping zhang 2011-12-26 10:11:27 UTC
Description of problem:
Convert windows guest to rhev,the three files firstboot.bat, rhsrvany.exe and rhev-apt.exe will run on guest to check the drivers on RHEV.
But they are not necessary to a guest which running on kvm.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-v2v-0.8.3-5.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Convert a windows guest to kvm
# virt-v2v -ic qemu+ssh://10.66.72.122/system -os default kvm-win7-x86_64 -b rhevm
root.72.122's password:
root.72.122's password:
Win7-x86_64.raw: 100% [==============================================]D 0h04m10s
virt-v2v: WARNING: The connected hypervisor does not support feature pae.
virt-v2v: kvm-win7-x86_64 configured with virtio drivers.

2.Check if the files firstboot.bat,rhsrvany.exe and rhev-apt.exe exist in "C:\Temp\V2V" folder.

Expected results:
When convert a guest to kvm,the three files don't need to be copied and ran. 

Actual results:

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2012-05-03 04:38:16 UTC
Since RHEL 6.3 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Tested with virt-v2v-0.8.7-6.el6.x86_64:
Remove the three files from software,when converting windows guest to libvirt,it can be converted successfully,however there is unnecessary warning:
virt-v2v: WARNING: The RHEV Application Provisioning Tool cannot be configured because the following files referenced in the configuration file are required, but missing: windows/firstboot.bat windows/rhev-apt.exe windows/rhsrvany.exe

Comment 5 Richard W.M. Jones 2014-11-18 11:26:11 UTC
Virt-v2v needs to run on the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux release
to ensure it can correctly read and modify new guest filesystem
features.  A new version of virt-v2v is now available for RHEL 7.1.

Before RHEL 7.1 is released, follow the instructions here to
install unsupported preview packages on top of RHEL 7.0:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2014-May/msg00090.html

After RHEL 7.1 is released, virt-v2v will be available in
Technical Preview.

You can run virt-v2v in a single virtual machine.  Other
requirements are covered here:
http://libguestfs.org/virt-v2v.1.html#resource-requirements

If you find a missing feature or bug in the new version of virt-v2v
please file a bug using the following link:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Red%20Hat%20Enterprise%20Linux%207&component=libguestfs
