use virt-v2v for ovirt target to convert it and place it into the
export domain, then import it to the system.
though i remember something about v2v being sensitive to source
being esx directly or vcenter.
As Itamar says, currently you can only convert from live ESX servers.
It's in the RHEL 7 schedule to be able to import from OVF/OVA.
