Please bear with me but I really don't have enough info as to HOW to
modify the xml template., beyond the obvious stuff, MAC address,
name of VM, etc.
Might there bit a more detailed xml template in context of Windows
to kvm/qemu I could use?
I guess we should probably link to the real documentation:
https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html
However virt-v2v has its own parser for libvirt XML and only parses a
(very) small subset of these fields. Generally you only need to take
that template and change a few fields, name, memory size, number of
vCPUs, and make sure there is one <disk> section per disk and one
<interface> section per virtual network adaptor. That'll cover 99% of
use cases.
Use ‘virt-v2v ... -o null’ to do a test conversion.
