Subject: [Xen-users] XCP - Need help with VMWare to XCP migration

I have a basic XCP system installed, with local storage.  I am trying to migrate a VMWare image created in VMWare Server 2.  I've converted the disk to .img, which is on an external USB EXT4 formatted HDD, connected to the XCP server.  I am trying to follow the instructions here http://forums.citrix.com/thread.jspa?threadID=151210&tstart=0

* Import img file
o xe vm-import -s "xen_pool_
master" -u root -p "root_pass" filename="raw_image.img" sr-uuid="SR-UUID from above" (this will take a while to complete)

I'm guessing I need to mount the USB HDD in the XCP CLI, and found the hard way no EXT4, so reformatting the USB drive, recopying the VMDK, reconverting to .img....

Could anyone get me on track? 

Also, how do I find where exactly the virtual disks are stored within the XCP filesystem?

Thanks,

Erich
