Hi!
We have RedHat Virtualization from where we are going to migrate to Nutanix AHV. Virtual machines in RHV are LVM, not disks, because we are using fibre channel. How can we migrate virtual machines from RHV to AHV?

Hello Pauli,
I hope you may find something in this document:
https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Nutanix-Move-v3_6:v36-overview-c.html
Let me look into this more and provide you some additional details.

Hi!
Move does not support migration from RHV :(

let me know if you need anything else.
Hi!
We are using RHV with Fibre Channel so virtual machines are not files. They are LVM’s. We have to convert those to files first but don’t know how…

Hi Paul,
Apparently, it’d doable albeit laborious https://askubuntu.com/questions/236799/is-it-possible-to-convert-lvm-filesystem-back-to-normal
Hi!
We are using Acronis Cyber backup to move most of the virtual machines but I think around 10 virtual machines would be easier and faster to move straight from RHV to AHV.

Some are only about 50GB but there is also two virtual machines that are over 1TB.

Okay! This is the use-case why we need P2V on Move! Then this would be no issue. In those special cases we have a small Nutanix VMware cluster, then we first P2V them to that cluster with VMware converter, and then ProtectionDomain migrate them to AHV!
