Windows7 Libvirt xml.

converted Virtualbox Win7 VM to KVM. (KVM on Ubuntu 14.04)

  • Shutdown Virtualbox VM.

  • Convert the vdi to a raw disk images. Note: vdi are compressed and raw images are not and so you will need to leave enough disk space for entire uncompressed disk.

VBoxManage clonehd --format RAW win7.vdi win7.img
  • Then on your KVM host:

increasing size of max line to avoid pep8 e501 check

I use pymode to modify my python scripts. Keep on getting E501 when length of line is 82 or 83..which I think is just fine.

to fix this did the following

_$HOME/.config/pep8

[pep8]
max-line-length = 90

Bash script to detect if SSH port is active on remote host. Used it orchestrating vm creation using ansible.

# Script for checking if SSH port is open
# Only checks that port is open. Not that actually SSH connection can occur

creating vms using virt-builder and virt-install on ubuntu 14.04
! add current user to kvm group
usermod -a -G kvm skamithi
! create root password file
cat 'mypass' > /tmp/rootpw
! update soon with run-command to run 'dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server' to regenerate ssh keys
! without this you get a ssh reset peer message
