Is there any way to create redundancy oVirt-engine? We install oVirt-engine in a machine, and what happens if that burning machine? Is there anything that can be done to remedy this? Att, -- “Encarada do ponto de vista da juventude, a vida parece um futuro indefinidamente longo, ao passo que, na velhice, ela parece um passado deveras curto. Assim, a vida no seu início se apresenta do mesmo modo que as coisas quando as olhamos através de um binóculo usado ao contrário; mas, ao seu final, ela se parece com as coisas tal qual são vistas quando o binóculo é usado de modo normal. Um homem precisa ter envelhecido e vivido bastante para perceber como a vida é curta”.
