Thanks for the details @florent

@florent said in What is the status/roadmap of V2V (Migrating from VMware to XCPng/XO) ?:

the newer VMFS put more lock on the files, locking the full chain of snapshot and base disks instead of locking only the active disk.
Even VMFS5 sometimes lock the full chain.

That explains why I had locking issues trying to restart the source VM on vmware after a migration test.

I'll see if I can find anything on how to use NBD with vmware.

Awesome ! Thanks Vates and DESY for all the work that went into this.

I'm really looking forward to use the pulumi provider when I get to the automation part of my tests (probably in a few months though).
