Hello Ovirt users,
Currently we haveing 4 Xen pools in our organization each pool have 8 servers. Due to new 7.3 version change ,we plan to migrate our upcoming 5th pool to Ovirt, the decision to do POC migration to Ovirt is from lots of Xen users that suggested Ovirt migration better and mature product migrate to it.
I started to test Ovirt currently only with one server with engine installed, my question regarding Ovirt sine i am really newbie with that system , is , is it possible to have multiple engine on it ? What happen if the engine server crash with some reason? can i load it on another cluster server? Please advice
The standard way to have HA for oVirt engine is to set it up as a self-hosted-engine and have more than one host in the hosted-engine cluster.
We do know that there are people doing HA using other means, based on external HA software (heartbeat), but that's more expensive (in hardware, work, and perhaps software, depends on what you use) - I'd suggest doing that only if your organization already has in-house expertise and experience with such software.
Good luck and best regards, -- Didi
