Convert Kemp Loadmaster Image to Qcow2

1 Intro

Kemp Loadmaster "Free VLM" Appliance is available for free with some limitations even for your business.

• https://freeloadbalancer.com/

It's a hardened Linux distribution based on HA-Proxy and some additional software.
The price is fair and it might be a good choice compared to "HA-Proxy Aloha" which does not offer such a "free edition VPS"

If you deploy to VMware, there is an optimized Image ready for download.
But if you decide to deploy to an opensource hypervisor, you get a raw image.
That means that you get a 17GB disk file with 171MB data in it!

2 Convert the Image

unzip Free-VLM-KVM-XEN.zip
