Re: [ovirt-devel] Interest in contributing to oVirt

Hello Yaniv, Thanks very much for the response. I am currently trying to develop a proposal for this project but I have not yet been able to successfully setup oVirt. I just realized I could not install the oVirt-engine an Ubuntu 14, so I am currently trying to download and install Fedora 23, where I intend to setup the oVirt-engine. I would then use another machine with Ubuntu for the host.

Please with respect to this project I would like to know if I am also required compile and install the source code for oVirt-engine or do I only need to build and install ovirt4cli.

Thanks Konrad On 17 March 2017 at 20:26, Yaniv Kaul <ykaul(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > Hi Konrad, > > I'm very happy to hear that and wish you good luck with the project. > > I think it'd be best if you can begin with familiarizing yourself with > oVirt. > If you have few computers around, it should be fairly easy to set it up.
