Is it possibel to use Forklift to migrate from VMWare ESXi to harvester? #3

Hi guys,

This project is undoubtedly fantastic work you're doing. I'm not posting an issue but rather a question: I'm moving all my internal infrastructure from VMware ESXi to Harvester. One of the major issues I'm facing is how to reliably migrate existing VMs (mainly Linux and FreeBSD) to the new environment without needing to recreate everything from scratch. It seems Forklift is designed to do just that.

Harvester uses the same base technology as OpenShift does for VM Management, KubeVirt. Still, I only saw documentation on how to install and use Forklift using OpenShift as the base technology and wonder if there's a way of achieving that on Harvester.

Any help or information you can provide would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the excellent work on the entire konveyor project!!

Kind Regards, /Edson Carlotti

@ecarlotti Did you have any success using Forklift? Harvester does provide VM Import add-on. However, I felt, it's a hit or a miss.

Thanks!
