[Libguestfs] [PATCH 0/2] v2v: glance: Allow Glance backend to import multiple disks

This patch series lifts the previous restriction that virt-v2v would
refuse to convert a guest to Glance that had more than one disk.

The first patch is just better documentation for the Glance output
mode.  The second patch contains the change (best viewed with
'git diff -w' since it is mostly a whitespace change).

virt-v2v -o glance will now create multiple disks called:

 - guestname         # assumed system disk
 - guestname-disk2   # assumed data disks
 - guestname-disk3
 - etc.

Probably you'd want to immediately import the data disks into Cinder,
and possibly the system disk too.

Unfortunately direct import from virt-v2v to Cinder is not possible at
this time (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1155229).

Rich.
