Sorry for the late response.
What you really want to do is export the OVF through XenCenter, inside there
you will find the VHD file, which is what you really want to be uploading to
Glance (I think there are instructions there for VHD files).
Mate has a nice blog post on quicker ways to extract the VHD file, and some
videos to help make it easier:

Subject: [Openstack] Generating Linux pv images uploadables to glance and
bootable from Xen Cloud Platform through Nova
Good night,
Could anyone know how to do this?. I have been able to create a image for
FreeBSD... because it runs in hvm mode. So... I have just export to xva, then
take
the vhd file convert to raw and upload to glance
glance add name=FreeBSD-9.1RC1-AMD64 disk_format=raw
container_format=bare FREEBSD.raw
Same thing is not working for Centos it hangs saying :
Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format
So like any procedures found are for KVM I would be very thankful if
someone
has experience doing this...
I have done some checks, read doc and so... but no way...
Best regards,
