Feature #1923

Updated by Dominic Cleal over 10 years ago

There is presently now way to convert a host in foreman from bare metal to a VM (or vise versa).    This is needed for p2v and v2p.    At my site we also have some older VMs managed by foreman that were provisioned as if they were bare metal.    In order to convert these existing hosts we need a new mechanism for telling foreman which compute resource the VMs are already on.    I don't believe it's possible to add a virtual host to foreman for a preexisting VM at all as it will automatically try to provision it. 

 

 Perhaps one way of addressing this would be to add a dialog for creating a foreman host for an unmanaged VM that's visible to foreman on an already managed compute resource.
