Hi all,

Potentially stupid question here. Sorry in advance if so. I have a= =3D lways built out full blown multi rack instances of oVirt, and RHEV for clie= =3D nts, but the following question has me wondering before I go digging and tr= =3D ying it out...

I realize that the oVirtLive ISO is for demo purposes, sandboxing, and n= =3D ot production: I have a client, who is in need of a bootable AIO-based USB = =3D install with the caveat of being able to connect to the computer's HD and o= =3D ther external storage at that point (for the Storage and ISO domains that I'll create afterwards). This = =3D is because they have one BM to work with and they don't want the extra= =3D overhead using an SSD HD slot. They don't want to use a Sata DOM either if= =3D possible.

In saying that, and concerning the oVirt LiveISO capabilities -&nbs= =3D p;I have two questions.

- Does the AIO USB install load necessary runtimes into memory, similar = =3D to esxi bootable USBs and utilize the base hardware afterwards so that the = =3D rest of the operations are ran in memory, hitting the disk (USB in this cas= =3D e) like a normal OS load when needed for kernel calls, etc..??

- Are there a terrible performance costs if we stay with USB3 (which has= =3D a ridiculous theoretical speed in certain hardware matching situations)?

Thanks in advance for anyone who might have already crossed this bridge = =3D and can provide insight.
