Hi Thomas,

No, it is not possible. All VM's interactions (start, stop, reboot, etc) are performed by the Engine application (ovirt-engine service).

Subject: [External] : [ovirt-users] Fallback Method to Start a VM if oVirt Engine is Offline

Hello,

Is there a way to start a VM directly from the KVM host if the oVirt Engine is down or temporarily unavailable due to network issues or other reasons?

thanks for any advice.
