So I clone my local working directory and build it on the strongest mini-dell using local jenkins server (http://www.ovirt.org/Local_Jenkins_For_The_People). The other 2 I use as hypervisor when needed. provision them is done by me manually :/.. cobbler pxe boot could help with already defined image.. Other then that, I have nfs mount for storage and few vms for compilation and small tests

sorry I can't help with your curiosity .. my env quite simple Regards, Yaniv Bronhaim. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
