Hi,

What tool did you use to import the OVF? The normal "xe vm-import" command doesn't 
understand OVF format (yet)-- it only understands "XVA"

Hi,

I did, right-click>  import with XenCenter that I use to connect to XCP.

Is there another way to do it ? is it even supported ?
Ah I understand. Import via xencenter should work. I think it uploads the disk blocks via 
a helper vm (known as the "transfer vm") -- perhaps that's missing from the XCP 
host.

Thanks a lot :)

You were right:

XenServer 5.6 fp2:
[root@xen-blade01 plugins]# ls -la /etc/xapi.d/plugins/ | grep transfer
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 53370 Dec  1  2010 transfer

XCP 1.1 RC
[root@xen-blade12 plugins]# ls -la | grep transfer
(nada)


Cheers,
SÃbastien
