Sys::VirtConvert::ConvUserrContributed)Sys::VirtConvert::Converter::Windows(3)

NAME
       Sys::VirtConvert::Converter::Windows - Pre-convert a Windows guest to
       run on KVM

SYNOPSIS
	use Sys::VirtConvert::Converter;

	Sys::VirtConvert::Converter->convert($g, $root, $config, $meta, $options);

DESCRIPTION
       Sys::VirtConvert::Converter::Windows does the "pre-conversion" steps
       required to get a Windows guest to boot on KVM.	Unlike the associated
       Sys::VirtConvert::Converter::Linux(3) module, this doesn't do a full
       conversion of Windows.  Instead it just installs the viostor (Windows
       virtio block) driver, so that the Windows guest will be able to boot on
       the target.  A "RunOnce" script is also added to the VM which does all
       the rest of the conversion the first time the Windows VM is booted on
       KVM.

METHODS
       Sys::VirtConvert::Converter::Windows->can_handle(g, root)
	   Return 1 if Sys::VirtConvert::Converter::Windows can convert the
	   given guest.

       Sys::VirtConvert::Converter::Windows->convert(g, root, config, meta,
       options)
	   (Pre-)convert a Windows guest. Assume that can_handle has
	   previously returned 1.

	   g   A libguestfs handle to the target.

	   root
	       The root device of this operating system.

	   config
	       An initialised Sys::VirtConvert::Config object.

	   meta
	       Not used by the Windows converter

	   options
	       Not used by the Windows converter
