Installation of Ubuntu 22.04 on my Ovirt
Hello my dear friends, I would like to install Ovirt on my machine under an ubuntu 22.04 installation but so far I have not found any commands to install it. Please help me find a solution.
Hello! I'm not sure if it's _possible_ to install oVirt on Ubuntu, but it isn't supported: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/installing_ovirt_as_a_self-hosted_engine... There are older tutorials that claim it works, like https://blog.eldernode.com/install-and-configure-ovirt-on-ubuntu-20-04/ I have not tried that. What You could do (and which is what I do, although not on Ubuntu) is to run a virtual machine with qemu/KVM and on that VM You'd install CentOS Stream and there You can install and run oVirt. I think that might be easier and/or more reliable (because it's tested better) than getting oVirt to run directly on Ubuntu.

There were efforts, several years ago, on porting oVirt to Debian/Ubuntu. I do not think this ever matured enough for general use. See also e.g. these, and note that they are all old and unmaintained: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/ubuntu.html https://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/vdsm/on-debian.html https://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/vdsm/on-ubuntu.html

From quick skimming, it seems like the above post describes how to install an Ubuntu _VM_ inside an existing oVirt setup (which itself does not run on Ubuntu - or at least, the post does not discuss that).
I have not tried that.

That's currently the best option for learning/playing/testing. Good luck and best regards, -- Didi
