shahar - uuid is not a must? if not and engine is supposed to create it, sounds like a bug?
Of course it fails if ovirt-engine doesn't generate one.

I tried the import with a minimal OVF file as described by Shahar and it worked, but failed on activate. This time I have a constraint violation on pk_vm_static, which means that ovirt-engine doesn't create a vm_guid if it isn't here. I guess it's the same for a lot of parameters. that's sounds like a new bug. please send stack trace (which will also help telling where to look). To move forward, I'm going to create "shadow" VMs on ovirt-engine, export them and import my "real" libvirt/KVM VMs with the exported OVF files. Makes sense? Where should I look in the source tree if I want to (try to) actually help with the restore code for imported VMs?
