[ovirt-users] Re: [External] : Importing VMs from CentOS 8 Streams to Oracle 8.9 oVirt (QXL issues)

Hi, If I understood well, the OS guest doesn't have support for VNC, just QXL/Spice. So... I guess you need to install the vnc drivers on the guest before the migration, buuut I think this should already be installed... I believe that the best way to "import" is to use the *ovirt-img download-disk* and *ovirt-img upload-disk* cli to download and upload the disk to new domain-storage, so after, to create the new vm configuration. I passed this issue many times.
