There are two places you should look. One is vdsm.log on the host
performing the import. And if you have oVirt 4.1 another place to look
at is /var/log/vdsm/import where the import logs are stored.

Thanks.

BTW: the permissions of the ova were ok.

I see this text near the end of the file generated into /var/log/vdsm/import

Can we take a sort of generic linux in case? I don't think there could be anything special in Ubuntu... or at least let the admin fix anything trying some resuce operation after the VM has been created.

Install virtio-win package somewhere. In it, inside
/usr/share/virtio-win directory, you will find virtio-win-*.iso file.

Is virtio-win package still current? In case from where to download it?

I read here:
https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/engine/windows-guest-tools/

and installied ovirt-guest-tools-iso package that gives:

[g.cecchi@ovmsrv05 ~]$ ll /usr/share/ovirt-guest-tools-iso/

and mounting as a loop device the iso I have inside it:
