OVA import does not upload disks
Hello, I’m running 4.3.5.4-1.el7. I’ve exported a VM as OVA and now I’m trying to import it in another Data Center (it’s like a DR Data Center) Import runs successfully both from GUI and from Ansible, but imported VM disks are empty and the VM fails to boot. How can I import disks content too? Thanks in advance for any help. Paolo
Can this be a bug of this version?

I have the same issue, it seems, but AFAIK the problem is on the export side: While the OVA logical file size matches the size of the VM's disk, the actual storage usage on the VDO compressed and deduplicated NFS I use as export target per 'du -h *.ova' is a mere 28KB, while 'strings <vm-name>.ova' reports an XML header and then nothing but zeros. I sure hope it's easy to fix and not an "we don't support importing oVirt OVA exports..."
