Re: [Qemu-devel] qemu-img vmdk converted from iso not accepted by vSphere

[Rich Wellum]

Hi Stefan,

> qemu-img

qemu-img version 0.15.50, Copyright (c) 2004-2008 Fabrice Bellard

I haven't got this to work on any version - I was trying this version because of the expanded list of sub format versions - I thought one of them might be accepted.

Thanks,

||Rich

When I convert an ISO to a VMDk and try to deploy it as part of an OVF package in vSphere I get the following error:

I've tried:

qemu-img convert -O vmdk image.iso image.vmdk

qemu-img convert -f raw image.iso -O vmdk image.vmdk

I'm using a very recent version of qemu-img. Anything obvious I am doing wrong?

By very recent version do you mean qemu.git/master?  Or 0.15.1?

Did previous versions of qemu-img convert the file correctly?
