Do you mean how to import existing vm disk into ovirt? You can use v2v (in ovirt-3.6) to import vms directly from vmware, or ova created by vmware. If you need to import qcow or raw disk, it is not automated yet, we are working on it for 4.0. Maybe Shahar can add more info what available today and what are the workarounds to import disks in 3.6. In 4.0 you will be able to upload disks directly using http, see http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/image-upload/ Nir

Wouldn't the following do what you want? 1. Do to disks main tab. 2. Click upload. 3. Select the disk image and type. 4. Attach the newly uploaded disk image to your VM I have never tried it, but it appears it should work.
