Description Pino Toscano 2017-03-23 10:04:48 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1379240 +++

Description of problem:
virt-v2v should not report error any more since libvirt bug 1134592 has been fixed

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-v2v-1.32.7-3.el7.x86_64
libvirt-2.0.0-10.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run below virt-v2v command.
# virt-v2v  -ic xen+ssh://10.73.3.21 -o rhev -os 10.73.2.1:/home/nfs_export --network rhevm xen-hvm-win7-x86_64 -of raw
[   0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt -ic xen+ssh://10.73.3.21 xen-hvm-win7-x86_64
virt-v2v: error: because of libvirt bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1134592 you must set this
environment variable:

export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct

and then rerun the virt-v2v command.

If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the
complete output:

  virt-v2v -v -x [...]

Actual results:
as above

Expected results:
virt-v2v should be ran successfully.

Additional info:

------------------------

The fix for bug 1379240 affected only VMware input -- ssh connection via libvirt  is affected by bug 1140166.

Thus, this bug will track the status of using the libvirt backend for xen+ssh input sources.
Comment 3 Jaroslav Suchanek 2019-06-25 13:20:37 UTC 
This issue will be addressed in next major release of RHEL.
