Migrate existing Xen Pool to CloudStack?

Migrate existing Xen Pool to CloudStack?

We have a xen pool running xenserver 5.6 with about 100 guests. We have setup a new xen pool running xenserver 6 on new hardware. What is the prescribed method of getting those guest VMs in to cloudstack?

Do we migrate the vms at the xenserver level and then import in to cloudstack from there or?

Look in the Cloudstack Adminguide under cloudstack.org

There is a section on how to import VM's into Cloudplatform(Cloudstack)

I don't see anything that talks about importing VMs from an existing XenServer. I see some discussion under Template management and Hyper-V is referenced.

I did find this article. Not sure if it applies to 3.0.2.

the above link is about converting XVA to VHD , which can be easily achived by xenconvert. ( the previous version of xencert )
