That may be true, but in the ISO domain, when you open virt viewer you can
change the cd very easily...maybe it works that way as well..

Don't think you have to use the ISO Domain any longer.
You can upload to a Data Domain and when you highlight the VM in the
management GUI, select the three dots in the top left for extra options and
there is a change cd option. That option will allow for attaching an ISO
from a Data Domain.
That is what I recall when I was using oVirt a month or so ago.

You have to copy the iso and vfd files to the ISO domain to make them
available to the vm's that need drivers.

Hi,
it seems the online documentation regarding the windows installation steps
is well out of date. Where is there any current documentation on where to
get the VirtIO drivers for a Windows installation?
From a bit of Googling, it seems that I need to 'yum install virtio-win' on
the engine VM and then copy the relevant .iso/.vfd to the ISO domain. Is
that correct?
Where is the documentation maintained and how do I open a bug on it?
Thanks, Shareef.
