I have exported the vm to the export_domain below are the two files I found
in the path
"/var/lib/exports/export_domain/de23c906-bb57-4d78-9d50-041171b498f2/images/92fc9aa1-cad7-4562-b289-3795573cbb94"

a2ef36fa-ecfa-4138-8f19-2f7609276d4b
 a2ef36fa-ecfa-4138-8f19-2f7609276d4b.meta

can we convert from these two files ?
