Great news ! Thanks @olivierlambert and @florent and let me know if you need some information on the vmware side.

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.

@Cyrille Thanks for the release !

I just tested the happy path of settings (6GB min / 8GB max and 8/8) and it seems to work as expected.
Now, I can get rid of the workaround, that's awesome

Hi @Cyrille, thank you for working on this, it will help a lot.

This is indeed implementing the needed behavior when creating vms from templates, avoiding the use of additional ad-hoc code. For reference, I needed to call the vm.set XO JSON-RPC function after the creation with the following arguments

            rpc_args = {
                "id": vm_id,
                "memory": vm_memory,
                "memoryMin": vm_memory,
                "memoryMax": vm_memory,
                "memoryStaticMax": vm_memory,
            }
            await rpcserver.vm.set(**rpc_args)

I'll try to test the provider patch in the coming days.

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).
