Migration should be doable. I'm not sure if there are any issues in migration, but you may give it a shot. Should you migrate, it may depend on what your core requirements are. VirtualBox has a much nicer UI integrating all features, very well, into its Graphical interface. On the other hand, KVM is the stock in-kernel hypervisor for Linux, which has a much larger userbase (Oepnstack, RHEV etc) and gets much more testing. In the past, I've migrated my setups from both ways. Initially, from KMV to VBox, and then later again from VBox to KVM. VM disk image conversion was fairly stable. I had no issues during image conversion. For config settings, I just noted down the settings and applied the same when importing it to the other hypervisor. For a large number of VMs, this may not be optimal. - -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf | http://people.debian.org/~rrs Debian - The Universal Operating System -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEQCVDstmIVAB/Yn02pjpYo/LhdWkFAlhPt4QACgkQpjpYo/Lh dWlkKhAAiESUsGuNWhMgqet1QlDPdpC9VBysXuZOm/5JqvdDAPf41cy+KDzCWS4w xfdaB7XOw2JShsmYAByf7j/W+o/oiaRRN/GgSy07I3tMzbaiFCjKU4Vd5yszhE91 Zb3eNMQZw7x7J0qCSNO0zzOJBvSX4QQaxXm9NfphAEQ+i22q9hWYwCTkzGdjmXqJ uNYF44HYIOA+1DKp0KeXqs7J9CaLqV/t4SVxA/kBvtQ7ET1iVsjomPPz/6bBBZ/s 8j5PTrDgt0gXSXRjGFb/Rr7argXIsJMC9BPr/pYgF4buLkKpL9IRuCEzxAEo4r1c IBNen1BiVps1qgZmdv967B4jMhyFhJJnJCeHznLchDodMbK2f2Dqnlnz8hwqTmeu e+B/oEFh8mrFsV/gqngl4gg8HTiCXI680wdkCs2hLxTABzPaUKFockKaCO4BLZkr NkH/fq6gb6UFFoM42e00qQrK6qzO5IaM1AFrFAiQ+RXE8lSTzKiO7Ot2Em00mLSG 7cdf6wU0TyfWirvP1P76rCQ/ToQdqdBX9TBtQZ9m+p1iraT8Ybz79ZljqpNp/yEX DaE0ugqoaxlhquESXp6QWhdHWKFhAnMlEmGsI106Iqnuqj7ksV1dhyFpsoVOaHUC NA2Sl5kHnPHStOciKySM+mIe8J3O+rnEzwsxvkC/eOYL85k7uro= =+9mB -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
