You want to P2V-convert an Ubuntu guest, right?

Or run the conversion process on an Ubuntu host?

Matt ^ do we support Ubuntu guests?

It looks like we moved it to a separate guide here:

https://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html-single/V2V_Guide/index.html

I'll fix the link.

The public docs don't cover virt-p2v because we've not released it in
RHEL yet (will be in RHEL 6.3).
