I want to test oVirt with real hardware, no more nested VMs. 3 hosts, each vm will be Fedora (maybe CentOS, I prefer Fedora) Since I don't want a nested setup, I assume the engine will require a 4th vm. What is the install process? On 2017-06-05 16:13, ovirt@fateknollogee.com wrote:

Sandro, If & when one decides to "graduate" & use real hardware, what is the install process?
The install process depends on how you want to design your lab . You can have a small deployment with just 3 hosts in hyperconverged setup or a large datacenter with 200 hypervisors and one or more dedicated SAN for the storage. If you go with an hyperconverged setup, you can install oVirt Node on 3 hosts and then on one of them use cockpit to deploy gluster and hosted engine on top of it in hyperconverged mode.
You can find an installation guide here: http://www.ovirt.org/documentation/install-guide/Installation_Guide/
Is the gluster part still automated or that has to be done manually?
If you go with hyperconverged mode it's now automated. You can find more info here: http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/gluster/gdeploy-coc... Sahina, please ensure above link is updated. I see it shows the feature still in WIP while it's been released.
Another question, what type of use cases & jobs is oVirt being deployed in & how are people getting tech support?
About use cases for oVirt you can find some examples here: http://www.ovirt.org/community/user-stories/users-and-providers/ If you want dedicated support, I would recommend to get a Red Hat Virtualization (which is oVirt with technical support and some additions) subscription getting Red Hat support. Another place to get support if you stay with oVirt is the community: this mailing list, the IRC channel and social media, have a look here for other contacts: http://www.ovirt.org/community/

Sure, I was just wondering why you were running in nested virtualization :-) Being your use case a "playground" environment, I can suggest you to have a look at Lago http://lago.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ [1] and at Lago demo at https://github.com/lago-project/lago-demo [2] to help you preparing an isolated test environment for your learning.

I have one CentOS7 host (physical) & 3x oVirt nodes 4.1.2 (these are vm's).
Hi, can you please share the use case for this setup?
I have installed vdsm-hook-nestedvm on the host.
Should I install vdsm-hook-macspoof on the 3x node vm's? _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users [4] [2] [2]
