Hello
I got a question regarding the redundancy of oVirt Engine; where we can
control everything through the GUI; aka the vCenter.
Initially; my setup was on a single server; installed following the doc
AllinOne.
Then after; i figured out that i would need redundancy; so i installed a
second node.
my question is about the vCenter; is it possible to start it on the
second node when the first node is down or in maintenance ? how to
ensure it is replicated ? i see there is a postgres DB on first node;
but not on second node. I'm a bit worried.
So, is it possible to have a dormant/slave ovirt ENGINE (oVirt web GUI )
; and if yes, could you point me to the related documentation as i
didn't find it.
Maybe, it is possible to run it in a VM ? is it a good idea ? and is it
still possible to migrate ?
The oVirt hosted-engine will do what you want. Have a read of the below.
