Reading the oVirt installation guide says that when a local ISO storage domain is configured during installation the virtio-win ISO and Virtual Floppy Drive (VFD) images, containing the VirtIO drivers for Windows virtual machines, are automatically copied to the new storage domain. The rhev-tools-setup ISO, containing the oVirt Guest Tools for Windows virtual machines are also copied to the domain. I'm running oVirt under FC 16, and I don't have those packages installed, what could it be ? I downloaded from http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/virtio-win/latest/images/bin/ the iso file but it doesn't have the floppy file (useful for the Windows setup installation) and also drivers for Windows 2008. Under RHEV when having a Windows VM at the admin GUI you can see what applications are installed, IP address, who's logged in, etc., on the VM. This is possible on oVirt too ? Is there any guest tool for Linux VMs ? (RHEL or CentOS) Thanks!

You can use the Same ISO / floppy disk for windows that is used for RHEV. For whatever reason the floppy isn't available from Red Hat any-more. You can get the last known release of it using the way back machine. http://web.archive.org/web/20110501124422/http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pu... I have no access to RHEL to confirm but I have been told that RHEV drivers work fine under ovirt. CentOS you can download those from http://wiki.dreyou.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/ovirt_rpm_start . You need to add the repo listed at the top and then if you look at the bottom there is the install for the guest.
