Hi Brent, ovirt-node is read-only by nature (with the exception of some configurations). This means you cannot simply install rpm's on it. Instead both vdsm and the engine core needs to be pre-built on the node. This is not trivial, as the engine core requires many packages.
If we assume you're using standard Fedora to be able to install rpm's, then we come to the next set of issues; co-hosting engine core with vdsm. There are things that need to be taken care of such as- - Adding the same host as a new host into the engine will cause reboot, which is not a good thing to do to the engine core during the installation process of the host..
We are adding a flag (host property) to avoid host reboot at the end of host installation. This will be available soon and we are thinking to expose it only through the API (not in the UI).
I think there are two different reboot's being discussed here: 1. reboot at end of an ovirt-node installation by ovirt node installation process (anaconda?) 2. reboot at end of configuring a full blown host (i.e., pre installed fedora), by ovirt-engine. I'm assuming perry was talking on #1. doron is talking on #2, since all-in-one is not relevant at this point for #1. 2. reb
