We have software developers who need VMs to test their software and for some test a display of 1280x1024 is necessary. The default cirrus graphics card is not good enough for that. But we have some VMs which use a Red Hat Virtual graphics adapter and we don't know how this happened or how it is configured. We just figured out that the difference may be connecting with SPICE or VNC. Is there a different way to change the grapics card permanently? Thanks, mad

Hi all! Is there a way to log engine messages to a syslog? I searched for 'syslog' in /etc/ovirt-engine/*, but not results. Thanks

[Users] Can I use couple nodes just for storage?
by Eliezer Croitoru 26 Mar '14

I want to use couple nodes for storage. Since these nodes dosn't have VT capability it will be a bit of a problem using ovirt. Can I disable the vt check while installing a single node? Building manually a node? A engine node without VT support? is it possible? As an example I have two server class nodes which works for a very long time and supports sata but lack VT technology. Another option is to use couple tiny devices with ovirt on them to for lower cost home storage. Thanks, Eliezer

[Users] Acceptance test
by Koen Vanoppen 26 Mar '14

26 Mar '14

Dear all, No I'm not spamming :-). I just have a question not regarding errors or bugs :-). We are using oVirt for some time now in Brussels Airport. Now after the implementation we have to put oVirt to the test... Does anybody knows if there are some existing test documents for testing a ovirt environment on up time and toughness? I have added a example from a VMWare environment from the windows system engineers. Hope someone can provide me with some documents :-). Kind regards, Koen
