Thank you Gianluca.  But that did not work for tying to import the ova's.

# ls -l /tmp/graylog-2.1.2-1.ova
-rw-rw----. 1 vdsm kvm 1129371648 Jan 15 20:19 /tmp/graylog-2.1.2-1.ova

I also tried again with the qcow2 image.

# ls -l /tmp/graylog-2.1.2-1.ova
-rw-rw----. 1 vdsm kvm 1129371648 Jan 15 20:19 /tmp/graylog-2.1.2-1.ova

I still get the same errors.

I am suspecting that I am converting the qcows image to the wrong location?  How do I know if I have the correct path?

I then try to start the VM and get in both the vdsm.log and GUI:

Is your one ok?
