I'm (self paced) studying the RHEV guides and course material to take the RHEV certifiation exam. Installing the RHEV manager is not a problem, the hypervisor is, however, another story. I don't have a seperate physical machine for the hypervisor. I was told that it is possible to install the RHEV hypervisor in a virtual machine using Ovirt kernel modules. Could someone point me towards documentation on this issue and what kernel modules to install? Thanks in advance!

which OS are you using? if you have a single physical box, you can try installing the allinone setup plugin rpm which will deploy host+engine on same box.

If you are using KVM as a virtualization platform; you can use nested KVM... Here are some links on the subject http://blog.jebpages.com/archives/ovirt-on-ovirt-nested-kvm-fu/ http://www.rdoxenham.com/?p=275 http://kashyapc.wordpress.com/2012/01/14/nested-virtualization-with-kvm-inte... I have an oVirt and RHEV stack all on my test machine. Note ~ you need a pretty "hot" box HTH Thank you, Christian Hernandez 1225 Los Angeles Street Glendale, CA 91204 Phone: 877-782-2737 ext. 4566 Fax: 818-265-3152 christianh@4over.com <mailto:christianh@4over.com> www.4over.com <http://www.4over.com> On Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 3:12 PM, rules@planet.nl <rules@planet.nl> wrote:

Hi Peter, Jason Brooks wrote an awesome guide to running oVirt in nested virt recently: http://blog.jebpages.com/archives/ovirt-on-ovirt-nested-kvm-fu/ Hope this helps you! Cheers, Dave. On 10/29/2013 11:12 PM, rules@planet.nl wrote:
