This example is useful indeed. Though it doesn't really answer the question. Because this example uses requires KVM/libvirt storage domain AFAIK. Unlike the web interface which can import an ova file that is residing on the file system. Having an API for that, would be nice. ___ Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/HQGQG56LCQJBWFS4SSGGOWSWAKVBOIK5/

Even though it is set to KVM in that example, we don't look at it For OVA, the important part is to have the URL in the form of "ova://" and oVirt will figure out if it's an OVA that was generated by oVirt or by a different platform regardless of the provider you set > > > > > -- > > Divan Santana > > ___ > > Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org > > To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org > > Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html > > oVirt Code of Conduct: > > https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List > Archives: > > > https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/2WWHXYKDSB2PG > > QVEQEV3FUPDWNCQBUXY/ > > ___ > Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org > To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org > Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html > oVirt Code of Conduct: > https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ > List Archives: > https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/YWAC57VJL6MZX6K53QUWCGMJAMAYQH24/ > ___ Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/3KNDYIVHZDGNKYNNOGNZQFWOIAXBEEQE/
