I'm testing out the ovirt-engine packages in Fedora 17. At the URL for the engine, there's a note, "Note: You are using a stripped down version, full version with GUI included can be downloaded in oVirt Project Site."

The note links to the ovirt.org wordpress blog -- is there a suggested path to getting the full gui that works with the Fedora 17 packages?

Jason, the GUI packages are not yet available in Fedora 17 because there are two additional components that we can't build in Fedora because we don't have GWT there yet: 1. The GenericServiceAPI EJB. 2. The GUI itself. I prepared a hacky RPM containing those two components: http://jhernand.fedorapeople.org/rpms/ovirt-engine-webadmin/3.0.0.0001-1 In that URL you will find the ovirt-engine-webadmin RPM. Download and install it, then restart the engine service (systemctl restart ovirt-engine.service). If you prefer you can also download from the same location the webadmin.tar.gz file and expand it in the /usr/share/ovirt-engine/deployments/engine.ear directory (that is more or less what the hacky RPM does). You are probably the first person to test this, so expect issues. I will be more than happy to hear from you and fix those issues. Thanks for testing!
