| selinuxium | Hi all, | 13:28 |
|---|---|---|
| selinuxium | I have a 10.04 instance running on VMware. I would like to convert it to an EC2 instance. The VM is already 50gb. How would I go about it? | 13:29 |

| SpamapS | erichammond: ping! got a second to talk about your ideas for adding the rest of the Amazon tools to Ubuntu? | 15:48 |
| smoser | selinuxium, i dont think there is any straightforward documentation written. | 15:58 |
| smoser | you'll basically have to perform a 'v2v', and remember that on ec2 root filesystem is /dev/sda1 and you upload a partition (not a full disk). | 15:58 |
| smoser | for anyone interested, I'm been playing with porting instance support (for UEC images) and host support (for UEC) for rebooting into new kernels back to lucid. | 15:59 |

| selinuxium | smoser, Hi there, sorry was afk... | 16:04 |
| selinuxium | smoser, How would I go about doing a v2v, from which side would you perform the task? | 16:13 |
| smoser | i only have very general advice. | 16:14 |
| smoser | for a starting point, i'd suggest | 16:14 |
| smoser | - start an ubuntu instance | 16:14 |
| smoser | - attach a volume | 16:14 |
| smoser | - rsync the vmware's partition's content to the attached volume | 16:15 |
| smoser | - unmount volume | 16:15 |
| smoser | - snapshot volume, register ami | 16:15 |
| smoser | - debug, rinse, repeat | 16:16 |
| smoser | things you'll probably want to add to your image in ec2 would be: | 16:16 |
| smoser | - linux-ec2 kernel | 16:16 |
| smoser | - cloud-init | 16:16 |
| selinuxium | smoser, cheers for your help. :) | 16:24 |
| smoser | selinuxium, i'm sure others would be interested in your findings | 16:25 |
| smoser | if you blogged or wrote a mail on what you had to do to ubuntu-cloud mailing list | 16:25 |
| selinuxium | smoser, I will give it a go :) | 16:26 |
| Makere | is it possible to use cores from multiple servers in one VM? | 17:50 |
| Makere | multiple nodes* | 17:59 |
| smoser | Makere, ? | 18:47 |
| smoser | you mean like if you had 2 machines each with 4 cpus, could you create a VM that used 6 cpus ? | 18:48 |
| smoser | is that what you're asking? | 18:48 |
| Makere | ye | 19:09 |
| smoser | no. | 19:28 |
