I would suggest to do it via one of the sdks, for example python https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/blob/master/sdk/examples/start_vm.... - you can create a simple python script you can start from cli. Alternatively use ansible, you can also call that from cli. Greetings Klaas On 9/30/20 7:57 PM, Jeremey Wise wrote:
Can anyone post link. (with examples.. as most documentation for oVirt lacks this).. where I can power on a VM via CLI or API.
As of now I cannot login to oVirt-Engine. No errors when I restart it.. https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/45KKF5TN5PRQ3R7...
BUt... I need to get VMs booted.
I tried to follow: http://ovirt.github.io/ovirt-engine-api-model/master/ and my server's API web portal https://ovirte01.penguinpages.local/ovirt-engine/apidoc/#/documents/003_comm...
And.. even get POSTMAN (real newbie at that tool but ran into how to add exported .pem key from portal to session issues)
