Hi Rene,
Thanks for your reply. My hypervisor is kvm which is already running on
Centos6. Now I understand the fact that I can't simply connect kvm with
ovrit-engine rather I will need to import machines from kvm to ovirt-engine
but my hypervisor will still be kvm ? Am I right ?
On a different node what is the role of vdsm ?
Thanks
Shantanu

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

René
