+ An older tool for converting a physical machine into a virtual

+ converted. It collects a little information from the user, then
+ copies the disks over to a remote machine and defines the XML for a
+ domain to run the guest.

+ virt-v2v converts guests from a foreign hypervisor to run on KVM,
+ managed by libvirt. It can currently convert Red Hat Enterprise
+ Linux (RHEL) and Fedora guests running on Xen and VMware ESX. It
+ will enable VirtIO drivers in the converted guest if possible.
+ </dd>
+ <dd>
+ For RHEL customers of Red Hat, conversion of Windows guests is also
+ possible. This conversion requires some Microsoft signed pieces,
+ that Red Hat can provide.
