The answer is that virt-v2v ought to work with oVirt. It was
developed originally against RHEV-M 2.2 and, later, 3.0.
Of course KVM guest images should require only minimal changes, since
they should already support virtio etc., certainly for Linux guests.
So in many cases virt-v2v would be a no-op, and simply copying the
disk image may work.
Matt ...?
