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_eng...
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.
HTH,
rob

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:

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.
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

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