Hello,

I think that is a requirement if you leave selinux active. You could modify selinux or disable it to use other folders.

Kind regards.

Hello, everyone. I want to export my vm as a ova to local path of the ovirt node. but I saw something about the local storage in the ovirt document:
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/chap-Storage/ 
It said:
Preparing Local Storage
...
Important: On oVirt Node, the path used for local storage must be within the /var directory; create the storage directory in the following procedure within /var

I check the partation of my ovirt nodes. the /var has only 15GB space  and the root dir / has 2.1 TB space. that is the default during the ovirt node installation.

question: why the loca storage must be put in the /var directory?

thanks.


yours Adam
