I have successfully migrated my standalone ovirt into a hosted
instance.  I have some questions and comments.


Is there a mechanism to make changes to the hosted engine VM post
deploy.  I would like to change some of the VM configuration choices.

I tried setting the maintenance mode to "global" and then editing:

  /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/vm.conf

I changed something simple: the VM name.  Then I copied the file to the
two other HA hosts and set the maintenance mode to "none".

- you need to kill the vm and restart it after you edit the configuation

hosted-engine --vm-shutdown
hosted-engine --vm-start

- also you can use virsh [1] to edit the vm

[1] http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/FAQ#Where_are_VM_config_files_stored.3F_How_do_I_edit_a_VM.27s_XML_config.3F

No joy the VM hostname remains unchanged in the portal.


Also, the notification system is horrendously spammy, I get email
notification of each state change from each of the HA hosts, surely this
is not intentional.  Is there some way to control this?

- that's a bug which should be fixed by this patch http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/33518/

-Thanks,  Alastair
