[Users] oVirt run once Linux boot options

Hello, I am wondering howto use this feature. Is it possible to install server from this dialog? I specified kernel and initrd path as http url to our spacewalk server and to kernel parameters I added ks=http://spacewalk.server.url/ks.cfg, but it did not start. Is it possible to connect oVirt with spacewalk 2.0 (redhat satellite 5.6) to provision servers? Thank you.

Hey Jakub, I guess that oVirt Engine could be deployed (partly) using a kickstart - but maybe others can correct me here. As for oVirt Node - you can't use a kickstart to roll it out, but you can use a wide range of kernel arguments to deploy a Node onto your machines. Take a look here for a list of kernel argument which can be used to automatically install Node: https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtu= alization/3.0/html/Hypervisor_Deployment_Guide/sect-Deployment_Guide-Instal= ling_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization_Hypervisors-RHEV_Hypervisor_Kernel_P= arameters_and_Automated_Installation.html - fabian --=-EoeUvc680RuWPv3Rdra4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.15 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJSsbA3AAoJEC9+uOgSHVGUYoMP/3v4W8u+Y4DV8wT6ajTkOGHb t67WYjR0oQWBtVOkmBOMX0sfBIO6NqDs92eUUbxw32AZBMQeJA8fNGGsQscnPQOy zlyt/QMXTZax+lH2WTvv+0uTIOk7+BQXyTw5oCdmLImQtO41YAauHPa7t51zEHps RK152LSyjMC4D8OVgoLNx6F3s5I4+t2+RikdbJEpHC26PJs/DpX0Q1tz4gITkUGm AlM3G4Kwk/NMLSZEq3UF61QSVdvHnipIGx8dEpQoMEExMWdHxfduWbDnDWMVGmpb iVNJ0FqeKYGZdoORee8t1RQ++GN6tRR9R+ZcXeMPBNiez1V599AT8b/FQ/u8Avt3 O/cCxuKxbiLK9jUSYzaTe2dEyv8q3p1YEDPlggoo1VGxU4c+o8Er62Wtn6xycjuz lXU0/JZQAwX7/uriVeQsO1JJSoQekMjMZc+V2SMxFNyzokx2VA+j0oexJyZ4jBzb bvK++MSM59/sMgIhjjG66BxDrP1zoMn4CU1Dii6RJRKgAv97OfpzmDrB0ZjRmojX v5NsDPDq1jnyQ3N/lAc8N2GiUam8lhZmb1iSyFb+UplbGWr5kwZQaC6QiblTBztr SkzhWj8zNypN0GAxvGqSO7fsqGnIrY7PyGH5lKfnvXGteyVdMngZxHbMVllQaS4K 31yngi/a2oR6xFCsvNaZ =zeo8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-EoeUvc680RuWPv3Rdra4--

- fabian I am sorry, but I mean server as oVirt VM. Virtualized guest. Not oVirt nodes. ;-)

I don't know if that's a (current) feature. The host would have to fetch the kernel and initrd from a remote server and then boot the VM with those files. It seems like the current feature can use files on an iso ( e.g. iso:///images/pxeboot/initrd.img ) and maybe local (on the node) files? We use a seperate "linux install" network with a dhcp/tftp/pxe server for kickstart deployments. (you could use cobbler for that with spacewalk). After installation we change the guest network to the final config. On Wed, Dec 18, 2013 at 3:41 PM, Jakub Bittner <j.bittner@nbu.cz> wrote:

actually, iso:// is to use files located on the iso domain. you can also point to local files on the host (but then you need them on each host)
and maybe local (on the node) files?
