Hello !!
I'm wondering if it's possible to import a VM disk on qcow2 format on oVirt to use it as a VM hard disk. The idea is to import a VMWare (vmdk) o Xen (ova) virtual hdd on oVirt.
Regards.

As far as i remember, there is no way to import just a disk, only vm/template. i guess you could find a way to create an OVF to represent a vm that attached to that disk, import it and then detach the disk from the fake vm

but you don't need to convert the vmdk to qcow2 necessarily - take a look at virt-v2v to do this for you, including changing drivers, etc.
As could could see virt-v2v converts VMWare ESX/ESXi VMs, but I have on VMWare Server 2.x.
Wouldn't it be possible to use VMware converter 3 to migrate the VMs to ESX/ESXi type and then use virt-v2v?
There's an application from Acronis ( http://www.acronis.com/backup-recovery/advanced-server-virtual/#red-hat-rhev) that seems to work (convert Citrix Xen Server and VMWAre VMs) to RHEV, this should also work on oVirt, don't ? -- AGD
