Another way, if you have a domain to spare, would be to detach the domain containing the
VM and attaching it to another setup.
Otherwise, you're limited to either an export domain (which requires copying twice, as
you mentioned), or some manual procedure like you suggested.

Subject: [ovirt-devel] Live export/import
Hi,
I would like to migrate a VM between two different ovirt installations with
minimum down time.
Using a export domain is slow (requires copying twice) and requires to stop
the VM.
It seems like the best option is to 1) create a snapshot, 2) transfer the
backing chain images and OVF files to the destination storage domain 3) stop
the VM, 4) transfer the active snapshot and 5) import the VM from the
destination storage domain.
Can you please comment and suggest other alternatives?
Thanks.
