Hi all, I've setup a foreman server, but when adding a new host by "discovered hosts", I can't modify the address item which is default filled with a built "mac-DNS".

In ovirt setup, I want to identify my future hosts by their IP and not their unknown DNS name like it is described here: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ForemanIntegration.

How can I setup foreman to do such a thing? Is the setup of the DNS proxy related?

Hello Yaniv, Okay for the DNS proxy, everything works now as expected. I have a new question now about the install host workflow. The host is in "installing OS" state, and on the host side it has been successfully installed. But now how to complete the host vdms installation and registration? I found this on your wiki : "For other OS - at first step won't do the registration by themselves, but foreman will do that using a plugin (plugin will send REST-API call to add or approve the host) " After investigation, I found that this plugin was this one : ruby193-rubygem-ovirt_provision_plugin (and with foreman 1.8 we can activate it with foreman-installer now) But nothing happens once the OS is installed et the state is stuck on "installing OS". Communication between foreman and engine is okay and without firewall issue... I found nothing significative into the foreman logs or somewhere else... What is it supposed to happen at this step?
