Re: [ovirt-users] To oVirt or not to oVirt

am reading through the release notes for 3.5 as I believe one can install the engine on a VM now.

As I only have one server at present my thoughts are to install CentOS7, then oVirt 3.5 node (vdsm), and then create a VM which would be the oVirt Engine.

Then as I add on another server I can just build that as a node and the Engine can be moved between. Is that correct ? Thanks, P.

After a little search around I came across oVirt and am considering whether to install this now and use it as the main configuration tool. do have a couple of questions which hopefully somebody will be able to help with? at present I am using OpenVSwitch with KVM so that I could use the vlan capabilities and wish to ask whether will need to move away from that to a different solution ? On my host I already have about 10 VMs that I wish to keep and whether I could migrate them into oVirt ? I have been using LVM volumes as raw storage for the VM images so presume would need to convert them to a different format for use ? one of my VMs actually acts as a storage provider, using Quantastor, which then presents storage to other VMs using iSCSI which hope I can still use in oVirt ? Apologies if these questions are a little vague but am trying to get my head around how it would all work.
