Bug 1937408

Hi,
currently, we are not able to import the template from ova via API it might have required some changes. 
Ori could you please check maybe it could be added to the API?

I added PR on the collection which solves what the users request but it creates the VM from the ova image and then creates a template.

@amashah , can you please clarify what is requested here, is it
(1) to ask ovirt-engine/RHVM to import a template from a specified location that the hosts can access as with the UI
(2) to upload an OVA you have at hand (locally, on the client side) to ovirt-engine/RHVM as with the above mentioned SDK example

Those are not the same as since both the UI and SDK examples were mentioned, I'm a bit confused

We are past 4.5.0 feature freeze, please re-target.

We expected this feature to be implemented in image_template role (as it was mentioned in the bug description) but we found it in the modules.
It failed, see details below.

Used versions:
ovirt-engine-4.5.0.6-0.7.el8ev.noarch
ovirt-ansible-collection-2.0.3-1.el8ev.noarch

Reproduction steps
1. We couldn't export template as OVA [1] so we exported VM as OVA which worked. 
2. We used: 
---
- name: oVirt image template
  hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  gather_facts: false

  tasks:
    - ovirt_auth:
        url: https://<engine-fqdn>/ovirt-engine/api
        username: admin@internal
        ca_file: /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem
        password: password

    - name: Import external ova template
      ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_template:
        cluster: golden_env_mixed_1
        name: Bla
        state: present
        timeout: 1800
        poll_interval: 30
        kvm:
          host: host_mixed_1
          url: ova:///tmp/Bla.ova
          storage_domain: nfs_0
        auth: "{{ovirt_auth}}"

  collections:
    - ovirt.ovirt

Moving to 4.5.1, too late to fix on 4.5.0-1

I was not able to reproduce this issue on 
engine: 4.5.0.8-1.el8
ovirt-ansible-collection: 2.0.4-1

Could you please try the template import again?
Looking at the log looks like an engine/AR issue.

Verified in ovirt-ansible-collection-2.0.4-1.el8ev.noarch, ovirt-engine-4.5.1-0.62.el8ev.noarch
