I'm looking at moving our XenServer cluster (150 VMs) to OpenStack on KVM. After extensive reading it looks like virt-v2v will do this. However I'm confused about it's usage.
I was going to copy the VHD file and then run virt-v2v on this, then import into Glance, and start an instance. However it appears this isn't the process virt-v2v uses.
Could someone explain the overall process, how to use virt-v2v or any other tool(s) that I will need to convert VMs from XenServer to KVM and import into OpenStack.
The two 'clouds' are separate hardware, over the internet - so i would like to avoid shared storage between them if that's possible, however if it makes it too complex we can sling up a VPN between.
