Hi,

I had a script based around ovirt-shell which I re-wrote as a script
around the Python SDK4 which I run on my engine during the startup
sequence.  The script will wait for the engine to come up and ensure the
storage domains are up before it tries to start the VMs.  Then it will go
ahead and start the VMs in the specified order with specified delay and/or
wait-for-up signal between them.

You can find my scripts at https://www.ihtfp.org/ovirt/

Or you can go the ansible route :)

Enjoy!
