We could probably support OEL with a bit of effort, but it's not
supported now. The virt-v2v manual (which you should read, as well as
the virt-p2v manual) provides a list of all OSes which are supported.
When trying to p2v a old windows XP VM, it ran the same long way
then failed telling that no root device was found in this operating
system image.
Windows XP should work. If it doesn't work you have to enable
debugging (this is now enabled by default in all new virt-p2v
versions), and then provide the full debug logs. See the instructions
for where these are located on the conversion server.
As I read in detail the very long log, I saw different things
failing, and amongst them, the issue telling that the 36:36
permissions on the NFS export share will prevent the import into
RHEV. I don't know if it is an issue at this point. Anyway, I don't
see any image coming into this nfs subtree at present.
When using '-o rhev', permissions should be set correctly for you
automatically. Instead of summarising and interpreting what the debug
logs say (which is not useful), provide the debug logs.
However if it doesn't succeed in the conversion, then it's not going
to appear in RHEV.
