I was looking into a way to import our KVM VM's/images into oVirt 3.5. Some of the VM's are Centos and others are Windows 2012. Some suggest to use virt-v2v but the version that can be used in CentOS 7(.1) does not support the "-ic" flag. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1138504#c8 (Comment 8) What I understand is that oVirt should solve this or make some kind of image import tool.
I found engine-image-uploader but that's only for OVF files.
Some other say that you just make a VM in oVirt and copy the original image over de oVirt image. This works but there is no human error correction in it or some other validation.
What can I do?
Submit a RFE if there is none in bugzilla and add an info what is your deployment. If big enough, it would be handled faster ;) j.
