Re: [ovirt-users] Latest ovirt-node release/installation

I sincerely hope that this is not answered elsewhere as I've done
several
searches and have yet to find a solid answer. I have three (what I believe to
be) basic questions (with perhaps some subs there):
1) What is the latest oVirt-node release and where would one download it (I
appear to only see 3.4 -based releases of the ISO available)? It is 3.5-based
and/or is there an upgrade path? Which glusterfs release is currently included
with oVirt-node?
I take the liberty to add Fabian to this thread.
Here is the link to the most current node release:
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.5-pre/iso/ovirt-node-iso-3.5.0.ovi...
see [1]
2) As I understand it, newer releases of oVirt-node allow you to do an
installation of the self-hosted engine at this time. Is that correct?
Be aware,
this is not a stable release ATM but provides HE features.
This works quite cleverly by fetching an OVF offline engine install.
3) Is there any functionality that one would be losing out on by deploying oVirt
via oVirt-node vs. using full-OS installation? Which is the more recommended?
Here
I go along with Sven's notes for most of the part. The node project
is quite ambitious. You might have some troubles with special hardware.
Esp. SELinux is a real challenge, also EL7 with systemd. But if you want
(many) lightweight hosts witch standard hardware and an easy deployment
cycle, node is for you. Give it a try and see if it suits your needs and
share your experience...
Again, I apologize if these questions are covered somewhere, but I felt like
asking them in a direct fashion so as to clear up my own ignorance. I
appreciate any feedback and information that you could share.
Thanks,
Chris
[1] Fabian's announcement
Hey,
to be able to give Node a go on the oVirt 3.5 TestDay, we provide a
fresh build of Node including the 3.5rc2 package here:
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.5-pre/iso/ovirt-node-iso-3.5.0.ovi...
We did not see any SELinux denials, but if you experience any problems,
please try to install Node in permissive mode by appending
enfcoring=0
during the installation.
