Hi,

I have been trying to migrate rhel VM with multiple disk drives from VMWare
environment to openstack. For this I extracted ova and converted vmdk files
for both the disks into raw format and uploaded to glance.

Now I have
1.disk1-as raw image which has OS
2.volume created from disk 2 which needs to be attached to instance

I tried -

1-Booting from disk1 image which fails because of filesystem check
error(screenshot attached)

2-I then attached a volume created from disk2 to it and rebooted instance
but it still shows the same error.

I found this-

https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/5358/how-to-import-a-vmware-vm-with-multiple-drives/

but it needs access to openstack server so does not look to be feasible
solution

Can anyone provide any pointers on this?

Thanks,
Shital
