The best and easiest way is via the Import dialog as you saw in 'virt-v2v-integration' wiki page. another way to do it and only for VMware (not KVM-Libvirt) is via the virt-v2v utility with the option '-o rhev' which export the VM to oVirt export domain and then you can import the VM to a data domain.
