# xc_fixup.sh

# Date: August 11, 2009

# Abstract: This script is designed to be run against the virtual disk of a VM that

# has been exported from a Vmware environment as an OVF package.

# This script is designed to run on both Hyper-V and XenServer, and performs

# basic fix-ups to the operating system installed on the virtual disk to enable

# the virtual machine to boot.

# Uses:

# ./xc_fixup.sh [no parameter]

# This is the default option, will run full script.

# ./xc_fixup.sh [device name such as /dev/hdc1

# This option will apply the fixup only on the device.

# Note: for best uses please follow the bellow steps.

# 1. Create a helper VM debian distribution to run this script.

# 2. Then copy this script along with any accompanying files into a temporary fixup directory.

# 3. Import the virtual machine to XenServer or Hyper-V using Kensho tools.

# 4. simply detach Virtual harddisk from the VM and attach to Helper VM.

# 5. Run boot the helper VM and run the scripts with admin privileges.

# 6. shut down the helper VM, detach the Virtual disk, reattach to the VM and reboot.

# * an alternative to creating a HelperVM on XenServer is to generate a DebianLive

# ISO adding this script to run as rc.local and automatically execute against

# all mounted volumes.

# Set the initial file system for fix-up, the IDE devices are checked first due to Kensho

# creating HVM type virtual machines on XenServer which see the disk interfaces as IDE.

# This also works on Hyper-V which only precents the boot devices as IDE.

Cannot Import OVA

Good morning:

Add Iso To Xenserver

I'm trying to import an OVA host into a XenServer 7.5 server and I can NOT get it to work. I'm getting a couple errors and I am TOTALLY lost as to how to get 'OS Fixup' setup. Anyway...

First error: In the Import Wizard, as I click next from 'Location' to 'Storage', I get an error popup that says, 'There has been an unexpected error. Technical details about this error have been saved to the following file.' When I open the file, the error is:

Xenserver 7.0 Mount Iso

It goes on quite a bit after that, but that's the beginning chunk. Object reference not set to an instance of an object? Any idea what that means? I can post the rest of the error if you'd like.

WTF is OS Fixup?: From what I understand, it's necessary to run (have? use?) OS Fixup when importing hosts created using different HyperVisors, which I am. My hosts were created in VirtualBox and VMWare.

Xenserver Iso Library

Cool. No problem. But, WTF is it? Is OS Fixup an ISO I download from Citrix? Is it just the Windoze install ISOs? Do they have to be hosted somewhere?...put in a certain folder?...I mean...what do I do? lol I'm totally lost when it comes to the whole 'OS Fixup' thing and I can't find any good info on it...

Second error: If I skip through everything in the import wizard, it'll act like it's importing, then timeout and give me an error in the Notifications tab that says 'Import Appliance -host- to -server- failed to import'. This could be because of my OS Fixup not being fixed up, but I thought the hosts would still import...they just wouldn't boot. But...I dunno...

Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you!!
