[ovirt-users] Issues importing VMs in oVirt

[Cam Mac]

It is not visible in the default tree view, but if you go to
Home->Inventory->VMs and Templates you can see the folders.

The structure looks like:

nssesxi-mgmt
   --> North Sutton Street
        --> Systems
             --> vm1 etc

Not sure why the cluster name disappears from this view.

Cheers,

Campbell
