# xva-convert
Scripts to export and convert XVA Virtual Machine images to qcow2 or img(raw) images.
## How to use
### Find VM/Snapshot UUID
```bash
# ssh into xen host
$ ssh xen.example.com
# list vms, find vm id that needs to be exported
$ xe vm-list

# if exporting a vm, shut it down
$ xe vm-shutdown uuid= force=true
# to take a new snapshot use this
$ xe vm-snapshot vm= new-name-label=
```
### Exporting `xva`
#### Using download script
```bash
$ xva-convert/download-xva.sh -h
usage: download-xva -x XEN_HOST -u UUID [ -o OUTPUT || -h]
-x | --xen-host : XEN Host
-u | --uuid : VM/Snapshot UUID
-o | --output : Output file (Default: uuid.xva)
-h | --help : This message
# xva-convert/download-xva.sh -x XEN_HOST -u VM_UUID/SNAPSHOT_UUID -o XVA_FILE
$ xva-convert/download-xva.sh -x xen.example.com -u 5ab706f0-fec1-2f87-7966-22e9797d5dd9 -o nfs_1.xva

```bash
$ xva-convert/xva-convert.sh --help
Please run as root/sudo
$ sudo xva-convert/xva-convert.sh --help
usage: xva-convert -f image_format -x xva_file [-o OUTPUT || -h]
-x | --xva-file : XVA file
-f | --image-format : img / qcow2
-o | --output : output image path
-h | --help : This message
# sudo xva-convert/xva-convert.sh -x XVA_FILE -f FORMAT
$ sudo xva-convert/xva-convert.sh -x nfs_1.xva -f qcow2
