This is a KVM native OVA.  Other than pulling apart the archive and importing the disks directly, then attaching the disk to a VM, is there a more efficient process?? 

Unfortunately, not yet. A better process is planned for 4.2:

If that's a VMware-compatible OVA then a better approach (the approach that was previously proposed requires you to convert the vmdk disks separately) would be to copy the OVA file to one of the hosts managed by oVirt, change its permissions to vdsm:kvm, and import it using the import dialog in the virtual machines tab.

Hi,

You can upload a disk in the "disks" tab.
You will need to create the VM manually, and attached the disk to it.

All,

I am using the latest version of Ovirt 4.1.1.8-1 running in CentOS 7.3 and would like to import an OVA.  Since it appears the image-uploader utility is deprecated, does anyone have information on how to accomplish this?
I cannot import it through the UI directly and rather than importing the OVA to a VMWARE environment and pulling it in, I would like to know how to directly do this.

Thanks

AK
