[ovirt-users] Disk image upload via CLI?

i tried it again twice:

when using upload_disk.py from the ovirt engine host itself the disk 
upload succeeds (despite an "503 Service Unavailable Completed 100%" in 
script output in the end)

another try was from an ovirt-sdk installation on my ubuntu desktop 
itself (yesterday i tried it from a centos VM on my desktop machine). 
this failed again, this time with "socket.error: [Errno 32] Broken pipe" 
after reaching "200 OK Completed 100%". in imageio-proxy log i have 
again the 403 error in this moment

what's the difference between accessing the API from the engine host and 
from "outside" in this case?

thx
matthias
