Any way to convert qcow2 to ovf

ovfqcow2qemuvmware-vsphere

In our application we are downloading a qcow2 image and after that we are supposed to import that as OVF.

So any way to convert qcow2 --> OVF or qcow2 --> vmdk(using qemu-img convert) --> ovf .

qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O vmdk whatever.qcow2 whatever.vmdk

Another solution I found for the same conversion requirement is to install QEMU on Windows and use the same syntax as for regular qemu-img

C:\Program Files\qemu>qemu-img.exe convert -O qcow2 image1.vmdk image1.qcow2

Source for downloading the qemu binaries here or here

Try qemu-img, it supports various formats for input and input.

In a last try, you can finally mount the disk on a VM and tar or dd it to another place, more friendly to other tools.
