It depends.
If you're using an ESX server, then yes, pretty easily with
virt-v2v.
If you only have the images of the virtual machine but not the ESX server
itself, it is possible use a dirty scenario:
- first convert the virtual machine to a local libvirt / virtmanager based
KVM environment. [1] includes a brief how-to..
- then use virt-v2v to import this new guest to an ovirt import domain.
The most complete documentation on v2v I could find is here [2]
If it's just a disk image, that's more difficult. I think
the
latest virt-v2v can do it. (Matt?)
It can not AFAIK, but this would be a very welcome addition...
