Thanks Rich
Am I right in thinking this is because the virt-v2v process (libguestfs/qemu-kvm)
see's the devices as IDE's as opposed to virtio and is therefore subject to the
restricted 4x IDE device limit of old?
Or at least , that's how I'm interpreting the DEBUG output.
BTW - virt-v2v is a cracking tool. We've so far successfully migrated over 120 RHEL
KVM and Xen VM's to RHEV. Without it, RHEV would not have been an option for us.
Thanks again
Rich

Apologies for the direct questioning, but is there a limit to the
amount of disks (virtio devices) assigned to VM that virt-v2v can
handle ? (I'm moving RHEL VM's from RH KVM hypervisors to RHEV using
virt-v2v-0.8.9-2.el6.x86_64)
The published version of virt-v2v can only handle either 2 or 3 guest hard drives.
The version under development will support many more (at least 250).
