How to Migrate Oracle VM to Oracle Linux KVM

This document provides a guide for automating the migration from Oracle VM 3.4 to Oracle Linux KVM using Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager. It outlines the requirements, assumptions, and setup needed for a successful semi-automated migration process, including necessary software installations and configurations. The migration process relies on components such as libvirt, qemu, and virt-v2v, and requires network access between the source and destination hosts.

Introduction
Target of this document it to automate the migration from other hypeviror solutions to Oracle Linux KVM
managed by Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager.

The document actually covers the semi-automated migration process from:

Oracle VM 3.4

Migration from Oracle VM 3.4


The semi-automated migration procedure relies on following components:

libvirt, qemu and virt-v2v correctly installed and con�gured on KVM host

Network access (ssh or h�ps) to Oracle VM Server(s)

Requirements and Assumptions


Oracle VM Server (source) and KVM/OLVM (destination) hosts are network reachable each other

Oracle VM Server is based on 3.4 release

Older releases could work but the same had never been tested

OLVM/VDSM releases are >= 4.3


ovirt-engine-4.3.6.6-1.0.9 RPM or higher is installed on the Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager
Server

vdsm-4.30.33-1.0.3 RPM or higher is installed on the Oracle Linux KVM Server

virt-v2v1.40.2-5.0.1 or higher is installed on the Oracle Linux KVM Server


At least one KVM host and a Storage Domain have already been con�gured on OLVM and are up and
running

The conversion server must have su�cient disk space to store converting VM’s disk image plus 1GB

Setup
With proper OLVM/OL-KVM setup up&running proceed with following steps:
· Install "qemu-block-curl" RPM on the desired OL-KVM Server (the server where the migration will be
managed/executed)

# yum install oraclelinux-developer-release-el7 yum-utils -y

# yum-config-manager --enable ol7_developer_kvm_utils

# yum install qemu-block-curl

NB: the only RPM that has to be installed from "ol7_developer_kvm_utils" Yum channel is "qemu-block-curl"
So, to keep the entire system supported, other packages do not have to be updated from
"ol7_developer_kvm_utils" Yum channel.
To accomplish this requirement, execute following steps:
· Edit "/etc/yum.repos.d/oraclelinux-developer-ol7.repo" and add following line:

[ol7_developer_kvm_utils]

name=Oracle Linux $releasever KVM Utilities for Development and test ($basearch)

baseurl=https://yum$ociregion.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL7/developer/kvm/utils/$basearch/

gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle

gpgcheck=1

enabled=1

includepkgs=qemu-block-curl*
