[Qemu-devel] vmdk stream-optimised format

[Alex Bligh]

I note some recent work on vmdk file support. Has anyone looked at
supporting vmdk streaming format as an /output/ file format (I
think we currently support it as an input format). This is what
you need to use to upload a VM to vCenter. Currently the route
is convert to raw then use:

which is some Python from Ian McLeod <address@hidden>
Life would be easier if qemu-img supported this directly.
It does not look fantastically difficult.
