Not that I'm aware of.  Virt-v2v just copies the entire disks -- with
a lot of work to make sure it only looks at the parts of the disks
which are non-sparse and contain data.  It doesn't look at the guest
at the partition or filesystem level (unlike virt-alignment-scan and
virt-resize) and so the question doesn't really make any sense.  Is
there a particular problem you found?
