Need help restoring an OVA backup from Synology NAS to FlygoOS

Hi everyone,

I have a VM backup in .ova format stored on my Synology NAS, and I need to restore it on my FlygoOS system (which uses KVM/libvirt).

I already have the .ova file on the NAS, but I’m not sure about the exact steps to import it into FlygoOS properly. I know I need to extract the .ovf and .vmdk, convert the disk to .qcow2, and create a VM, but I want to make sure I do it correctly.

Here’s what I have:

• NAS IP: 192.168.5.200
• File path: /volume1/MyPro/backup/my-vm.ova
• Target system: FlygoOS (192.168.5.248)

My questions are:

1. What’s the best way to transfer the OVA from NAS to FlygoOS?
2. How do I extract and convert the disk image properly?
3. What virt-install or virsh commands should I use to create the VM?
4. Are there any common pitfalls (network, boot, drivers) I should watch out for?

I’d appreciate any step-by-step guidance or examples from someone who has done this before.

Thanks in advance!
