To convert the images I used:

Sure this will expand the file to the full size, but why do you need raw

oVirt will not allow me to have more than 3 IDE devices on a VM
What do you mean by "it does not seem to work using the virtio-scsi
selection."?
Doesnt 3.6 only work on RHEL/Centos 7?
And Fedora 21/22.

Can you provide more details about "does not seem to work"?

ovirt-3.6 beta supports import from ova format; maybe you like to try it?
