While the h= osted-engine install was supposed to replace it, it requires either networke= d storage (nfs, iscsi) or Glusterfs. To my knowledge nfs/iscsi exported to l= ocalhost is not supported, so I would need at least 2 machines. Furthermore= Gluster requires at least 3 sources of storage for quorum (it would be grea= t if there was an option to acknowledge the risks and continue), meaning a s= ingle machine is not practical. =20 I understand and acknowledge that oVirt is not targeted towards homelab se= tups, or at least small homelab setups. However I believe that having a sol= id configuration for such use cases would be a benefit to the project as a w= hole. It allows oVirt to be much more visible in the homelab community, and= more accessible to testing which in turn yields more people who have experi= ence with oVirt. As it stands most other virtualization products allow for u= sage (not just a livecd) in a single server environment, although not all fe= atures can be used of course. vSphere, Xenserver, Proxmox, FIFO, and Nutani= x all allow an installation on a single server. It appears that oVirt/RHV is=
