Hello Alessandro,
This is OK if you did snapshot(s). The original VDI will be
displayed if you get VM params and looks for extra options there. There are may
be even more files connected to VM. Don’t bother about this.
Roughly you should do the following steps:
1. Stop the VM
2. Make export with “xe vm-export” to XVA file
3. Extract VHD file from XVA using XenConvert (look here
http://marcusdaniels.net/quick-and-easy-xenserver-to-hyper-v-conversion/)
4. Put VHD file on HTTP server
5. Register template in Cloudstack from URL at p.4
Vadim.

Subject: Help in importing VM
Hi guys,
I've a little question about how to import a VM in ACS.
A my client has a VM running on XenServer 6.2 SP1, now he wants to migrate to
our Cloud platform and we should import that VM in his account.
We done a snapshot of the running VM and created a new VM from that snapshot,
after that we found the VHD name from the commands:
xe vm-list name-label=TOMIGRATE
uuid ( RO) : 9ab667ef-32b9-d61b-73ef-4d6c40196c43
name-label ( RW): TOMIGRATE
power-state ( RO): halted
xe vm-disk-list uuid=9ab667ef-32b9-d61b-73ef-4d6c40196c43
Disk 0 VBD:
uuid ( RO) : 1a47a516-1268-d134-7161-3d37972a2be6
vm-name-label ( RO): TOMIGRATE
userdevice ( RW): 0
Disk 0 VDI:
uuid ( RO) : 7b856647-9893-4275-8738-755046817c7b
name-label ( RW):
sr-name-label ( RO): 76ebfe94-cb9d-390d-bb6d-8dc21e977bdd
virtual-size ( RO): 5368709120
Now, browsing the NFS SR, I found the
7b856647-9893-4275-8738-755046817c7b.vhd file, but it's strange that the size
it's just 14 KB!!
Why?
