Re: [ovirt-users] Import KVM/libvirt VMs to oVirt
Hi,
thank you for the quick response.
Yes I can confirm that I'm also able to perform this through copying of
the image but then you need to know the exact file name of the disk you
need to overwrite.
Is there a way to see the file name also in the oVirt admin portal?
Best regards
Christoph

Adding Richard.
IIRC people managed to do that by merely creating a new vm and copying the
existing one over the new empty disk. No idea about details, you might want
to search the list archives.
Best,
