[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1470481] [NEW] qemu-img converts large vhd files into

Subject: [Qemu-devel] [Bug 1470481] [NEW] qemu-img converts large vhd files into only approx. 127GB raw file causing the VM to crash
Date: Wed, 01 Jul 2015 12:06:50 -0000

Public bug reported:

I have a VHD file for Windows 2014 server OS. I use the following
command to convert VHD file (20GB) to a RAW file for KVM.

qemu-img convert -f vpc -O raw WIN-SNRGCQV6O3O.VHD disk.img

The output file is about 127GB. When install the VM and boot it up, the
OS crashes with STOP error after the intial screen. I found on the
internet that the file limit of 127GB is an existing bug. Kindly fix the
problem. The workaround to use a Hyper-V to convert to fixed disk is not
a feasible solution.
