Hi all,
The self-hosted you all provided definitely put me on the right track, thanks for that!
I presume you mean CentOS *8* stream??
I'm using the x86_64 CentOS 9 stream available here
https://www.centos.org/centos-stream/. Is only 8 supported? That explains the next problem
I'm having really well. I can definitely switch if so.
The problem is when running ` sudo yum install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup.noarch --nobest`,
a bunch of "nothing provides ...": (Same with/without --nobest).
```
[victor@localhost Desktop]$ sudo yum install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup.noarch --nobest

Also at 5.1, it says it can't find the module 'virt'. Is there a repo I'm
missing maybe? I still have the release44.rpm from the standalone engine page added.
I'm not sure what you're trying to do here. If you just want
API support, you could just script virtsh (over ssh if necessary). I wouldn't install
ovirt just to get API support for VMs
Kinda, to be honest this is a passion project of mine that I've always wanted to take
a stab at writing. I originally started with Xen, but heard that oVirt is able to develop
faster, and has passed them.
I need both the API, and hypervisor to run VM's, on the same machine. I'm planning
on writing my own GUI manager for it. SUPER long term, I'll have a single .iso people
can install to get oVirt + this gui on their single machine. With that, I think the
self-hosted engine route is right for me? Since it runs the nodes, and API?
