Hi Shafi, A Storage Domain in oVirt is like a Storage Pool in a stand-alone KVM host. To create a virtual disk on a stand-alone KVM host, a storage pool must exist where you create the virtual disk. The same for oVirt, to upload or to create a virtual disk, a Storage Domain must exist. After uploading the disk to the Storage Domain, you can attach it to a VM.

I use libvirt (virt or virsh commands) to create and manage Vms . I have a pretty basic doubt in OVirt . I was trying to migrate a VM from my KVM host .I copied my .qcow2 virtual disk to the ovirt host. I am able to create a Vm after uploading the disk to a new storage domain and create a VM with the storage domain. Can I create a VM without using a storage domain ( By directly attaching the copied .qcow2 disk ) to the Vm Regards Shafi
