We have a mixed vmware/kvm setup.

I think one thing we were missing initially was "libguestfs-winsupport" 
package.  Which caused issues with windows machines moving from vmware to kvm.

We run our vcl on CentOS 6.

Hope this helps.

Subject: Running VMware images on KVM host

Hello 

Have anyone succeeded in running VMware/KVM mixed environment for VCL? 

I'm having difficulties starting Windows 7 VMware images on KVM: the image 
would convert and load, but Windows gets blue screen.
I assume this is due missing virtio drivers while attempting to run Windows on 
KVM.

We also have VMware tools installed on Windows image, which may also contribute 
to the problem. 


Thank you,
