I'll try to reproduce the issue here, but you can also do
the following command directly on the guest disk image if you
want to test something:
time LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct guestfish --ro -a fc21-64.qcow2 -i
selinux-relabel /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts /
force:true
As long as you make sure you use the '--ro' flag, this will not make
any changes to the disk image.
The OVA has a .vmdk file inside it. I have no idea where ovirt put the
.qcow2 file. I suppose I would need to track it down through the VM GUID?
Can I run this command on the disk image of a running VM that's already
been imported? Or... better, can I run it on a .vmdk file? Or, worst
case, is there a way to convert the .vmdk to a .qcow2?
For me that command only takes ~15 seconds to run on a Fedora 21
disk
image with minimal (@Core) packages installed. I'm using a
RHEL 7.3 host.
So noted. Like I said, I can supply you the ova file if you think it
would help. It's only 1.7GB ;)
Thanks,
