Open Stack

Thank you all.

I am able to get the Single disk Windows VM  exported from HyperV  and
imported to OpenStack(Ussuri, Glance and Qemu KVM )  Instance launched and
its showing the status running  in the PowerState Tab of Horizon dashboard.

(need to check with the administrator user to login and confirm the VM is
working as expected . )

My second phase :    I need to perform  importing   multiple disk   Windows
VM to   my OpenStack setup  .

( For single disk  Windows vhdx file, I 've converted it to qcow2 file and
imported to OpenStack as the steps  I posted in my  previous emails. )

Now how can I   import Multiple disk Windows VM  to  OpenStack.

First Step  is  to convert the  vhdx files exported from HyperV to  qcow2
files.

After this step ,   what steps need to be performed   to bring a multi disk
Windows VM to  OpeStack ?

For Eg:  I have a Windows VM

1. with  Application server  1TB single disk image exported from hyperV.
This I can import to  my OpenStack setup with the steps I followed in my
earlier emails as it is a single disk image.


2.  A Database server for the above application with   700 GB  in multiple
disks.  ( 100 and 600 GB disks images exported from HyperV  and in vhdx
format  for DB server)

How to bring this server imported to   my  OpeStack setup (ussuri, glance
and QEMU KVM).   As this is from Windows  HyperV  I  am new to multidisk
environment from Windows.
( for Linux VMs exported from oVirt(RHVM) I am able to import multidisk
VMs to OpenStack as they are in LVM and I have to mount it with VG name and
adding entries in /etc/fstab file )

But in Windows multi disks how to perform this ?  what steps I have to
perform to import this to OpenStack.    Any hints or suggestions most
welcome..
