Hi, CloudStack supports import/export of unmanaged instances for VMware. Similar feature for KVM is WIP: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/7712 Support for migrating instances from VMware to KVM is also WIP: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/7881
To enhance KVM import capabilities further, I would like to add support for importing external KVM instances. External KVM instances can imported from non-CloudStack orchestration engines or from a standalone KVM host. Initial implementation will support import of libvirt based instances which are in stopped state (Cold Migration). Later phases can support Live Migration and non-libvirt based. instances (e.g. Proxmox). regards, Kishan
