For ovirt 3.1 + F17, you'll find it in here: http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/3.1/rpm/Fedora/17/x86_64/.

You don't have to have it installed on your VMs, but it comes in handy, mainly for reporting the VM's IP address through the web interface.

There's a service associated with the agent that you'll want to start, I think it's just called "ovirt-guest-agent"
