Which engine are you referring to ?
Perhaps search the net for something like 'ovirt architecture' to get an
overview.
The engine is up but the VM ( or domain ) is only down.
So for this link :
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.0/...
Under the section Procedure 6.27. Importing a Virtual Machine from KVM, I
am able to connect to the KVM and it gives me a list of only the running
VMs . The caveat is the VM needs to be down to import ( understandably ),
so if I go and shutdown the VM on the remote KVM host, it no longer
appears in the list .
So how does one go about selecting the VM ( which is down ) from the list
when it is not seen ?
I am not sure exactly what you are trying to do, nor whether the above
document is relevant to this. Please clarify exactly what you want to do,
or what your question/issue is.
If you are experienced with libvirt/virsh and expected the oVirt is just a
(shallow) wrapper around that, and that you can continue using
libvirt/virsh as you are/were used to, well, it's not like that. Indeed in
certain cases your knowledge will be relevant for
debugging/troubleshooting, perhaps supplying custom hooks if needed, but
not more than that.
Best regards,
