Thanks for your help.<br>
<br>
I tried the import with a minimal OVF file as described by Shahar and it<br>
worked, but failed on activate.<br>
<br>
This time I have a constraint violation on pk_vm_static, which means<br>
that ovirt-engine doesn't create a vm_guid if it isn't here. I guess<br>
it's the same for a lot of parameters.<br>

that's sounds like a new bug.<br>
please send stack trace (which will also help telling where to look).<br>

To move forward, I'm going to create "shadow" VMs on ovirt-engine,<br>
export them and import my "real" libvirt/KVM VMs with the exported OVF<br>
files. Makes sense?<br>
<br>
Where should I look in the source tree if I want to (try to) actually<br>
help with the restore code for imported VMs?<br>

you will need the header: the <Reference> tag the <Content> tag with the<br>
<Section> items: <System> and <item>s cpu and memory, all other<br>
devices can be<br>
