Re: [ovirt-users] gluster VM disk permissions
thank you very much for the reply.
My main question now is does it required to use "user = root" in
qemu.conf for the import script to work?
I know in my earlier testing I got a permissions error when doing import
until I added the root user line.
I guess I'll take it out and give it a try.

Virt-v2v will now refuse to do this at all (except if you "trick" it
as I did in my blog posting), but if we allowed it then it would make
all kinds of modifications inside the guest which you don't need and
have at least the potential to break things.
The import-to-ovirt.pl script is/was intended as a simple import
script which you should use instead in the case where guests already
run on KVM and therefore don't need driver etc conversion/
installation.
As Nir said in the other reply, oVirt 4.0 has native import
functionality and the import script is not needed at all for KVM ->
oVirt imports.
Virt-v2v should only be used for foreign hypervisor imports, such as
VMware, Xen or Hyper-V to oVirt.
