Dear Nir,
Thank you for quick reply.
Ok, why it will not work?
Because the image has a backing file which is not accessible to oVirt.
I used qemu+tcp connection, via import method through engine admin
UI.
Images was imported and converted according logs, still “backing file”
invalid entry remained.
Also, I did use same method before, connecting to plain “libvirt kvm”
host, import and conversion went smooth, no backend file.
Image format is qcow(2) which is supported by oVirt.
What am I missing? Should I use different method?
I guess this is not a problem on your side, but a bug in our side.
Either we should block the operation that cannot work, or fix the process
so we don't refer to non-existing image.
When importing we have 2 options:
- import the entire chain, importing all images in the chain, converting
each image to oVirt volume, and updating the backing file of each layer
to point to the oVirt image.
- import the current state of the image into a new image, using either raw
or qcow2, but without any backing file.
Arik, do you know why we create qcow2 file with invalid backing file?
Nir
Kindly awaiting your reply.

Can somebody advise me how to fix, address this, as I am in need of

Sure this qcow2 file will not work in oVirt.
I wonder how you did the import?
