Thanks for that.
Yeah, I found the ova file a day or so ago (where you said it
would be).

Hi All,
A couple of Qs:
During the `TASK [ovirt.ovirt.engine_setup : Install oVirt Engine package]` stage of the Management Engine deployment, is this trying to install the ovirt-engine-appliance, or something else?
It's here:
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-collection/blob/master/roles/engine_setup/tasks/install_packages.yml
So - it tries to install 'ovirt-engine'.
This is ran inside the engine VM, not on the host.
When we do a pre-install of the ovirt-engine-appliance (ie dnf install ovirt-engine-appliance) where is this installed too, so that we can enter this information into the deployment script at the `Engine Appliance Image Path` stage?
Not sure what exactly you ask here.
(On some somewhat lagging-behind machine: )
# rpm -ql ovirt-engine-appliance
/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/10-appliance.conf
/usr/share/doc/ovirt-engine-appliance
/usr/share/doc/ovirt-engine-appliance/ovirt-engine-appliance-manifest-rpm
/usr/share/ovirt-engine-appliance
/usr/share/ovirt-engine-appliance/ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20220523064055.1.el8.ova
So e.g. in this case, I could have responded, to the prompt asking
which image to use,
'/usr/share/ovirt-engine-appliance/ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20220523064055.1.el8.ova'.
If you want to make the deploy process not try to install/update
packages inside the engine VM, but only use whatever that's inside the
appliance image, you can try:
# hosted-engine --deploy --ansible-extra-vars=he_offline_deployment=true
