Command line. I first did the import, then checked the image with 'qemu-img info' and verified that the size was wrong and then copied, making sure to use the same filename generated by the import.

I might have some more details, but I don't know what it means.

This does not seem right. The whole idea behind disk upload is that you can do that remotely from any machine that has access to the REST API. If this is not working for you (but works when performed from the server) you're probably missing the oVirt CA certificates in your browser. > > I then created a new VM and attached the disk, but when it boots up it tells > me that it does not find a bootable device.

Go to the Storage -> Disks page, from there you can upload your disks to the storage domain. Then you can create a new VM and attach existing disks to it. If that's what you're looking for.
