 Hi,
 
 I have 2 hosts with all local primary storage, and we have obtained new

 What would be a good/possible way to migrate existing volumes from local to

 I have already done migration of some templates from one NFS secondary
 storage to another NFS secondary storage (on another host , by changing
 records inside template_host_ref, template_vm tables...so scp images, and
 change host to another host, etc..
 
 But with primary storage, not sure if this is possible, since disk offering
 for these local volumes is local type, not shared type... is it
 possible at all ?

Thanks for reply.

And what about creating new VM, cloning old VM's volume to the new volume
(copy/scp, dd, something), and then delete old VM and assign IP address of
old VM to the new VM (by editing the database) ???

Any hack to make this possible ?

Thanks

Migrate volume from local to shared storage

shared primary storage now.
