Thank you Hesham,

Do execute the script on engine or ovirt hosts? Should I specify the domain of the VM and the name of the host on the values bolded below:

# Find the virtual machine:
	vms_service = connection.system_service().vms_service()
	vm = vms_service.list(search='name=myvm')[0]
	vm_service = vms_service.vm_service(vm.id)
	# Find the host:
	hosts_service = connection.system_service().hosts_service()
	host = hosts_service.list(search='name=myhost')[0]

I don't think there is a pre-installed CLI tool for export to OVA,
however you can use this
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/blob/master/sdk/examples/export_vm_as_ova.py

Make sure you change the Engine URL, username, password, VM and Host
values to match your requirements.
