</div>Your hypervisor must be CentOS 6 or Fedora 18/19 in order to be able to<br>
manage it with oVirt (other Linux distributions are still a wip).<br>
<br>
As oVirt has a totally different concept as virt-manager you have to<br>
import your machines into oVirt. As Markus already wrote this can be<br>
done using virt-v2v.<br>
<br>
