You are supposed to import the VM from the KVM host:https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization...

If that's the case you can just go to the disks page in the ovirt admin site ( Main Menu => Storage => Disks ) and upload them there. Then you can create a new VM and click on the attach button in the VM properties to use the uploaded disk. -Patrick Hibbs On Sat, 2022-03-05 at 22:06 +0000, Abe E wrote:

Hi Abe, You can upload the disk to the desired store domain and attach it to the guest you create. I do it regularly. I upload the qcow2 image to the storage domain and attach it to the VM using the web interface. Also, you upload the KVM guest disk as a template.
