If I want to import a vmware image=2C does it need to be attached to a runn=

I had a gluster + sanlock problem take out my ovirt cluster (2 hosts), =
and I only have it partially back up. My dozen VMs are currently =
available only when my (dual boot) hardware isn't running oVirt. =
Or, to put it the other way, I can only run oVirt when I can take down =
the VMWare group, because I don't have spare hardware. Working on =
rebuilding one VM in KVM today (VMWare copy had a problem).<br><br>The =
only way I have heard succeed is to use ESX/ESXi or the "hollow =
pig" method. Create a VM in ovirt, including the hard =
drive. Replace hard drive file with file from VMWare (or otherwise =
get data into file). Fiddle with VM hardware & settings until =
it runs.<br><br>Ted Miller<br>Elkhart, =
