To convert the images I used:
qemu-img convert 250.qcow2 -O raw 250.img -p
Sure this will expand the file to the full size, but why do you need raw image? ovirt
works with qcow images.

What do you mean by " it does not seem to work using the virtio-scsi
selection."?
<blockquote>
Doesnt 3.6 only work on RHEL/Centos 7?

And Fedora 21/22.

I have a virtual mail security appliance that I am trying to import into oVirt 3.5.4. The
appliance was built for kvm. it has a total of 5 scsi disks. I can convert and copy the OS
disk only because it expands its self to full size.
The first problem that I have is that the disks expand to their full size when I convert
the to an oVirt format
</blockquote>
How do you convert to ovirt format?
<blockquote>
OS Disk
mail.qcow2 (74M) converts to main.img (294M)
Storage disks
250.qcow2 (256K) converts to 250.img (250GB)
1024.qcow2 (256K) converts to 1024.img (1TB)
2048.qcow2 (256K) converts to 2048.img (2TB)
4096.qvow2 (256K) converts to 4096.img (4TB)
8192.qcow2 (256K) converts to 8192.img (8TB)
The second problem is that these disks are scsi and ti does not seem to work using the
virtio-scsi selection. I tried selecting the IDE option, but there is a limit to the
number of IDE disks that I can use.
</blockquote>
Can you provide more details about "does not seem to work"?
<blockquote>
Virtualbox has no issues running the appliance that was distributed in the ova format. Any
help would be appreciated
</blockquote>
ovirt-3.6 beta supports import from ova format; maybe you like to try it?
