I have an oVirt and RHEV stack all on my test machine.

Note ~ you need a pretty "hot" box

Hi All,

my name is Peter van der Meulen from the Netherlands. I'm (self paced) studying the RHEV guides and course material to take the RHEV certifiation exam. Installing the RHEV manager is not a problem, the hypervisor is, however, another story. I don't have a seperate physical machine for the hypervisor.  I was told that it is possible to install the RHEV hypervisor in a virtual machine using Ovirt kernel modules. Could someone point me towards documentation on this issue and what kernel modules to install?  Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Peter
