Hi,
so you mean ist saver and better to let bootstrap do its work instead of doing it manualy,
right?
Ok, but I have already kmv hosts I wanna add to ovirt. Whats the best way todo? Save the
vms somewhere and reinstall the host via bootstrap and move the vms back via virt-v2v?
Regards, rene

Basically the bootstrap process is making sure the relevant RPM files are installed, and
conflicting packages are either removed or causes failure. There are some conflicts that
are not in RPM level, which bootstrap knows how to handle. These will not be handled in
the path you're taking. Similar issues you should expect is bios virt flags and kernel
/ OS validations bootstrap is doing.
Furthermore, bootstrap is auto-generating a vdsm configuration, as well as other things
such as networking (which you stumbled upon), time-sync, key & certificate generation
signed by the engine-core, along with setting up a core-dump folder and probably some
other things which I forgot.
So as you can understand bootstrap is handling many issues, and manual installation,
although possible, will not b e a simple one. If you're heading this way I suggest you
read the vdsm_bootstrap, vdsm_bootstrap_complete, deployUtil and vds_installer python
scripts. All should be available on your engine-core machine.

Hi,
lets assume that i have a running system and i already did a yum groupinstall
"Virtualization*". Then I have a completely running kvm system with virtual
machine manager and so on. What do I have to do to add this host to ovirt? Can you explain
the steps?

Rene,
Standard bootstrap assumes base OS is installed, with access to relevant yum repo in
order to fetch vdsm and dependent RPM's. From this point of view, we concentrate on
VDSM, while kvm is simply a kernel module which should be loaded. Anything beyond will
probably cause manual intervention as you just had.

think only about that kvm is already installed on the host I want to add to ovirt.
