[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1006655] Re: Can't convert to vmdk with the streamOptimized subformat

[Serge Hallyn]

I'm confused- this is marked as affecting qemu-kvm in precise, but the
preceding patch (c6ac36e) which introduced the bug is not there either.
So I'm going to mark this as not affecting precise unless someone speaks
up to say that we in fact need the whole dependent series.

Bug description:
  Hi all,
  I'm trying to convert a qcow2 image file to the vmdk (on Ubuntu Server 12.04):

  # qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O vmdk -o Stream spv-2912.qcow2 spv-2912-3.vmdk 
-o subformat=streamOptimized
  VMDK: can't write to allocated cluster for streamOptimized
  qemu-img: error while writing sector 65: Input/output error

  Same result with any input format. Others subformats work but the
  StreamOptimized is by far the most important one. The only workaround
  I found is to migrate to raw and then to use VBoxManage (VirtualBox).
