Many ways to accomplish such a thing, this is what I personnaly did:
* Make the virtio modules available at kernel boot
o mkinitrd --with virtio_pci --with virtio_blk --with virtio_scsi
-f /boot/initrd-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)
* boot on a rescue live centos with network enabled
* mount a (NFS) share
* dd if=/dev/sdX of=/mnt/share/os.img
* upload your disk with UI/API to ovirt
* manually define your vm by attaching this disk
This is what does virt-p2v under ther cover, but you do it it by your own.

vm using REAR.

I am also confused with the whole process. If anyone has a quick
start guide or video I’d be interested in checking it out.

experience with physical host to oVirt conversion?
Hello,
Just would like to check if it really possible to convert old Centos6
based physical box into oVirt 4.3 VM? I haven't been able to find any
success stories on this and process seems a bit complicated.
As I understand it I need a virt-v2v conversion proxy + image with
virt-p2v running on physical host which needs to be converted. I'm a
bit lost how I can get the converted VM into oVirt cluster than?
