Hi,

There is a thread on this mailinglist going on since yesterday...  I 
suggest you follow that discussion so people don't have to post things 
twice...

    /Hi,/

    /I have a lot of qcow2 based vm (from my kvm box) disks and I would
    like to copy to ovirt them./
    /Ovirt can use qcow2 based images directly or I need to convert to
    raw in any case?/
    /I don't have long time for migration, the conversion process takes
    a long time./
    /

    /Thanks in advance/
