[Users] ovirt host on amazon

[Jorick Astrego]

Hi Uche,

Thanks for the tip, looks a lot like proxmox and I can use it for some tasks probably.

I read through the information and the reason OpenNode can run on Amazon is because they use the OpenVZ support. Amazon has enabled OpenVZ a couple of months ago.

As oVirt doesn't support OpenVZ and isn't planning to as far as I know (KVM is a way better hypervisor), there can be no oVirt on Amazon.
 

Hope this explains.


Kind regards,

Yea, i thought so jorick. But you know opennode is another redhat project that is very nice too, but they got hosts systems on amazon. Am thinking , i dont know if we could find out how to get ovirt host on aws just like opennode. It is gonna make ovirt a complete software based datacenter. I am looking forward to that, and i think it can be done, since it was done for opennodeOn Nov 12, 2013 11:47 AM, "Jorick Astrego" < j.astrego at netbulae.eu> wrote: 
Hi, 

I don't think it's possible as Amazon is already a virtualized environment. Nested KVM would be possible but as I understand Amazon AWS is running on Xen.
