That one is obsolete AFAIK. The oVirt container images are now being worked on in the 'ovirt-containers' repo.
Checked it out. It seems more complicated than what I need, which would be just a Dockerfile that pulls the required image. The ovirt-containers repo seems to have a dependency on OpenCluster, which I think I won't need since I'm after a basic install on one machine for documentation purposes. Your advice is appreciated.
Adding ovirt-containers developers. Yaniv, Juan, Fabian, Sandro, Simone - can ovirt-containers be used for his purpose?
Also adding Rgolan since he did work in the past on a containerized dev environment for oVirt.
If you just want your own little oVirt install "in a box" for testing/dev purposes, you can look at Lago and the ovirt-system-tests projects.
You may be able to use the engine container independently, with some effort. But this 'ovirt-containers' project isn't certainly intended for that simple use case, it is intended to be able to deploy the complete oVirt system in an OpenShift cluster. If you are willing to give this a try, and you already have a docker installation, creating an OpenShift cluster for testing purposes is really simple. You can use 'oc cluster up'. It is a matter of downloading the 'oc' tool from here: https://github.com/openshift/origin/releases/download/v1.5.0/openshift-origi... That contains the 'oc' binary. Put it in your path and then run this command: oc cluster up That will pull all the required images, and configure a simple OpenShift cluster into your machine. Once that completes you can proceed to deploy the oVirt application. First you need to build the images, as they aren't yet available in a public repository. To build the images checkout the code of the project: git clone git://gerrit.ovirt.org/ovirt-containers Then go into that directory and run this: make build That will take quite a long time, as it needs to build all the images, and it requires downloading of the base images and of the RPMs that go into the images being built. Be patient. Once the images are built, you can deploy the complete oVirt application running this: make deploy Would be great to have you testing this, giving feedback and reporting any issues you find. But be aware that this is in a very early stage of development and should be considered experimental.
