Hi everyone,
I am new to ovirt and can't find any documentation about how to import an existing VM into ovirt. I have a qcow2 image that I know runs under a KVM hypervisor. Ideally there would be a way for me to import it as a template because I plan to create other virtual machines based off this VM.
I tried virt-v2v, but it will only work if I have a datacenter setup with NFS. In my case, I have a datacenter setup for local storage hosts.
Don's know where are your datacenters. If both of your datacenters are managed by oVirt, You can export the existing VM in datacenter. And then let the other datacenter to import it.
Thanks,
Andrey
