So if i need to deploy serval vms on a machine, which is going to install ovirt engine, and serval vms on another machine, should i do the following procedure?
1.Install self-hosted engine
2.Install some vms
3.Install ovirt node on other machine
4.Install some vms on ovirt node
5.Connect ovirt node to the self-hosted engine

Since you’re deploying a new oVirt Pool I would recommend deleting everything and restarting.

Moving the Management Engine to Hosted Engine is too much work for a pool that isn’t in production yet.

Thank you guys. Those information is useful for me.
It seems like we will configure VMs in the Self-hosted engine.
As I am a newcomer to oVirt system, I would like to ask another question.

 

Since I have already installed one oVirt engine on one physical machine and one oVirt node on another physical machine.
If I need to install self-hosted engine, do I need to delete the original oVirt engine and install the self-hosted engine , build up some new hosts and connect to the original oVirt node?

 

Thank you all of you so much.

Indeed.

There is one important difference: hosted-engine requires some shared storage.
In principle you can use shared storage exported from the same machine.
You can do that with NFS or iSCSI. NFS is considered somewhat more risky, but
somewhat easier to setup (at least, if you have no experience with iSCSI).
You can search the list archives with things like 'hosted-engine all-in-one
same machine nfs iscsi'.

Another option, depending on your needs, is lago + ovirt-system-tests.

Best,
