I've been writing an experimental P2V (physical to virtual server migration) tool. It's a live CD, the idea is that you boot it on the physical server and it examines the local disks and ships them off to your Xen/whatever host where they can be turned easily into a replica virtual machine.

The concept works, but the current implementation is a bit broken. I hope to have something working a bit better over the weekend.

Nevertheless, it's just a big shell script so if anyone feels like lending a hand then send me an email, or ping me on #virt (@ OFTC).

Check out version 0.4 from the above site. It __almost__ works; at least the TCP transport works, but the ssh transport for some reason fails to be able to connect to the remote machine (even though I can 'ssh' perfectly fine from another virtual console).

Again, all feedback, patches, etc. gratefully received.

(Also I've clarified that the license is GPL).

Rich.
