If you want to retain the default datacenter created during installation, you have to edit it and set it as "Local" in "Storage Type" section. Or you could create a new DC with that setting There is also the option to install with Self Hosted Engine and use shared storage (NFS, SAN, iSCSI,...) if you have one available: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/installing_ovirt_as_a_self-hosted_eng... Or with the same guide use the host storage itself, but as GlusterFS and eventually extend it later if/when available with other hosts Of course in that case you loose all the HA functions available at host level HIH, Gianluca

If you are not planning to have a second KVM host in the future, I should use a stand-alone KVM host managed by the Cockpit web UI.
