Hi,
Small questoin: when running the P2v hard disk image, and I want to convert
a phyical machine to oVirt, to which machine do I connect when the GUI
starts? one of the nodes or the hosted engine? (i'm not talking about the
URL).
Thanks

You need a machine (or it can be a VM) with virt-v2v installed, and
that is what you connect to. It's called the "conversion appliance"
in the docs. I can't quite remember if virt-v2v is installed on the
nodes by default - if it is you could use one of those. If not then
bring up a VM in oVirt running Fedora/CentOS/whatever and ‘yum install
virt-v2v’ on it.

Yes, it is by default on VDSM nodes. So theoretically you should be able
to use those.
