Hello,
Unfortuately, I can't give you the exact information as oVirt doesn't
display that information on the VM import window. It should just have
been the default timezone or Eastern Standard Time (-5:00).
The VM is on a data storage domain that was detached from the old
engine installation and then reattached to the current installation. As
per:
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/index.html#Migra...
Hence it's not an OVA file. I can access the raw storage partition, but
I'm not sure how to open it to get to the actual metadata or which one
it even is.
Thanks,Patrick

Hi,
Can you please provide what time-zone the VM you are trying to Import
has?
if you are trying to import from the OVA you can get the time-zone by
going to the host location where the exported OVA exists,
open it and check what is the value of the <TimeZone> tag
Thanks,
Saif
