Hello Markus, Thanks for coming back so quickly. I will read the document shortly. In the mean time my kvm hypervisor is already running and it's attached to iscsi storage. Do I need to convert all machines ? or I can simply mange all the stuff through ovirt-engine like I am managing with virt-manager for now.

Hello Everyone ,
Can I use ovirt-engine to mange my already installed/running kvm host/guest ? If yes can someone guide me to the documentation/howto please ?
Thanks

Hello,
welcome to the list. ovirt uses a central management server (ovirt-engine) that manages the machine definition in a database. It controls VMs on several hypervisor hosts with this information. To get a VM into the database you have to import it. virt-v2v helps me for VMWare sources and it should do the trick for you. Find more info in chapter A.1.2.4 of this page:
