[ovirt-users] HCI with Ansible deployment steps: oVirt 4.3.7 + Gluster

Hello Community, Wanted to contribute with the little I know after working a few times with oVirt in an HCI environment. One of the questions for which I was not able to find a straight forward answer is how to deploy an HCI oVirt environment, so after a few struggles I was able to achieve that goal. Below is an example of what I used to fully deploy a 3 node cluster with oVirt 4.3.7. Please note I am no expert and just providing what I have acomplished in my lab, so use the below at your own risk. 1.-Hardware used in my lab : 3 x Dell R610s, 48Gb Ram per server, Intel Xeon L5640 @ 2.27GHz Hex core x 2 2 x 146GB HDDs for OS 1 x 600GB HDD for Gluster Bricks Dual 10Gb Nic. 2.-Deployed the servers using oVirt 4.3.7 image. 3.-Added ssh keys to be able to ssh from host 1 over to host 2 and host 3 without a password 4.-Modified the following files for ansible deployment on Host 1 4.1.-Under etc/ansible/roles/gluster.ansible/playbooks/hc-ansible-deployment -- Modify file he_gluster_vars.json with the Hosted Engine VM required information: --Modify file gluster_inventory.yml with hosts and gluster information You can find the modified files that I used here https://github.com/viejillo/ovirt-hci-ansible I hope this helps and if any questions feel free to reach out.
