Re: [ovirt-users] Sync two Nodes
Yes, if you configure the cluster with networks /storage/etc you can
put off the second node to save power:) and loose HA, but every time
when you change some thing in a main node you should turn on second
one and reinstall it.
Healthy node means that ovirt-engine can see that host has a access to
storage and all networks are available in order to start the failed
VM.
The HA function can be configured per VM, and the action what engine
should trigger on failure: reboot, pause or poweroff you can choose in
the vm settings.

Ok, then HA is not the right choice.

When I understand your right, then there is no necessary data on the nodes,
all information have the ovirt engine? My VM images are on a nfs share, at
the moment.
When one node crashes I can just migrate the VM to the second node? That
would be wonderful!
