According to the official documentation, it looks like there is only the = legacy 4.1 ISO, or nightly / unstable builds of 4.2(.2?)? SRC: https://www.ovirt.org/download/ovirt-live/ = <https://www.ovirt.org/download/ovirt-live/> --- Alternatively, if one is to deploy the 'self-hosted-engine' on top of = CentOS 7.4, the documentation doesn't make it clear what you should vs = shouldn't setup on the host prior to deploying the hosted engine. For example, some big questions pop up around networking, e.g.: - Should I be setting those up during CentOS's install using the = installer (which I believe configures them with Network Manager), or = should I be setting up the ifcfg files manually by hand without touching = Network Manager via the server's remote console after the install has = finished? - Is it OK for me to setup my first two NICs in a mode 1 (A/P) or 4 = (XOR) bond (these are connected to a 'dumb' switch and provide internet = access and later will be used for management activities such as vm = migrations). - Is it OK for me to setup my second two NICs in a LACP bond (required = as they connect to our core switches) and to add VLANs on top of that = bond, include the storage VLAN required for iSCSI access which is later = required to host the hosted-engine? SRC: = https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/self-hosted/chap-Deploying_Self-Hosted= _Engine/ = <https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/self-hosted/chap-Deploying_Self-Hoste= d_Engine/> --- I think the hardest thing is that the documentation for oVirt seems very = poorly maintained, or it's at least scattered around various links or = different guides. Perhaps this isn't obvious to people that are already familiar with the = components, terminology and setup practises of oVirt / RHEV, but for = someone like me coming from XenServer - it's confusing as anything.
