Alex, porting VMs in oVirt is not very flexible as some may expect or
commonly look for. Perhaps in future versions there will be things
like Host to Host transfer and not need to run commands to convert VMs
For now you need to use Exports (mount, umount, mount aigain) and so on.

Thanx, I can confirm that this way i may transfer VMs, but I was
thinking a
more dirty and perhaps portable way.
Say I want to get to a external disk just one VM from DC A and copy/import
it on DC B that has no access to the export domain of DC A.
I've seen also articles converting the VM disk to qcow or raw then importing
it with some perl script.
I guess that the OVA import/export feature, still to be implemented, is what
I need for this case.
Thanx,
Alex
