We are currently looking for a virtualisation platform that will allow students to install and manage VMs via web interface. VMware is being proposed but I am trying to get KVM and the RedHat ecosystem in the lab as much as possible. I have reasonable experience with running virt manager on CentOS 7, but oVirt is new. I have it installed and running OK but am not sure how to proceed with configuration. I basically want to run a single physical server which will be the KVM host, the ISO and data store, and the home of oVirt engine ... in other words a complete oVirt-managed KVM virtualisation platform running on one physical machine (32GB RAM). It will only ever need to run a handful of VMs with little or no real data or load. Is this possible/feasible? If possible/feasible, where should oVirt engine go ... on the host itself, or into a VM guest? The web interface is what is making oVirt an attractive option at this stage, as students will be working from Windows clients on a corporate network. Do VM GUI display well in the browser? Thanks for any advice Mike Hall _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users ------=_Part_1574080_1273953510.1460597874041 Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html><body><div style=3D"font-family: times new roman, new york, times, se= rif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000"><div>As far as I remember, oVirt does= come with an all in one configuration , but looks like it was deprecated a= t 3.6, So can you try out the self hosted engine?<br><br>https://www.ovirt.= org/develop/release-management/features/engine/self-hosted-engine/<br><br><= br></div><div><br></div><hr id=3D"zwchr"><div style=3D"color:#000;font-weig= ht:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Aria= l,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;"><b>From: </b>"Michael Hall" <mike@mjhall.o= rg><br><b>To: </b>users@ovirt.org<br><b>Sent: </b>Thursday, 14 April, 20= 16 11:10:03 AM<br><b>Subject: </b>[ovirt-users] Educational use case questi= on<br><div><br></div><div dir=3D"ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><d= iv><div><div>Hi<br><div><br></div></div>I am teaching IT subjects in TAFE (= a kind of post-secondary technical college) in Australia.<br><div><br></div=
