Hi, 

I have the same problem. Because most of my clients are outside of organisation so donwtime is not an option. So it there any kind of procedure that can be created (or exists) in case we want to migrate existing infrastructure into the clodustack (convert to IaaS). Something like script that will scan all running VM-s and import them inside of cloud.  I believe VM volume can be managed by using storage migation (in case of XenServer or VmWare).

In my case that's the critical  issue, so we are looking solution that can convert out xensever infrastructure into the IaaS

Tnx
Dubravko

H Badi,

Cloudstack needs to be in control of what is running on the hosts. As
work around create templates from the vms and deploy then deploy them
from cloudstack after adding the host

Daan

This would be a super-cool feature to add to ACS. It’s sorta the cloud-orchestration equivalent of having to add 1000 nodes to nagios.  Would be interesting to discuss with folks over a tasty beverage in Denver...
