well, you can put two clusters of different hardware in the same DC, then 
simply 'edit vm' and move it to the other cluster?


Well, I actually wanted to move the physical disk.  There was 2TB of data on 
it, and I didn’t want to move it via a GB network connection.

I ended up doing it using basically the method I posted yesterday…I shutdown 
the old oVirt system, moved the disk to the new system.  Created a new data 
domain on the disk, then created new VMs and disks in the new data domain, 
after the new disk was created, I just moved it from the directory of the old 
data domain/VM into the new one and fired up the VM.

Instead of waiting hours and hours for 2TB of data to be copied, I moved my 4 
VMs in a few minutes.

A way to attach an existing on-disk VM image is really needed.


if there is a disk you "injected" to an already attached storage domain, you can detect and register it today via the REST API (register disk iirc).
still missing the UI for this one.
