Thanks for taking time for responding, @arik.

"you didn't elaborate on what doesn't work for you using Ansible" - I have no issues creating a template using ansible. I have not raised an ansible issue in particular.

"I suppose the ability to export a template as an OVA is missing, right?" - Not exactly.

My requirement is to make a template available from one ovirt cluster to another ovirt cluster that are not connected. I have elaborated how I am doing it currently (which is highly manual).

" export the VM to an OVA" - I do this using the ovirt_termplate ansible module. However, you can do this only to a hosted storage within the cluster.

"4. import the OVA as a template (see "Import external ova template" in the
documentation of ovirt_template_module)" - I have been using the 'ovirt_template' ansible module for the past couple of months. I have not figured out how I could import an OVA template from a node. For example, if I manage to copy the template to one of the cluster nodes (say, node2.my.ovirt.cluster:/tmp/ova_template/my_template.ova), I could not work out hos to import this OVA into my cluster. Do you have some sample code, if this is easy enough?

- name: Import external ova template
  ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_template:
    cluster: <target cluster>
    name: <new name>
    state: present
    timeout: 1800
    poll_interval: 30
    kvm:
      host: <host on the target environment>
      url: ova:///tmp/test.ova
      storage_domain: <target storage domain>

Thanks
