[ovirt-devel] Say Hello to the oVirt Engine Virtual Appliance

[Fabian Deutsch]

Hey,

one of the things on the list for oVirt 3.5 was the oVirt Virtual Appliance.

Huh, what’s that? You might ask. Well, imagine a cloud image with oVirt Engine 3.5
and it’s dependencies pre-installed, and a sane default answer file for
ovirt-engine-setup. All of this delivered in an OVA file. The intention is to get 
you a running oVirt Engine without much hassle.

Furthermore this appliance can be used in conjunction with - and is actually
intended for - the Self Hosted Engine feature, and the upcoming oVirt 
Node Hosted Engine plugin.

More informations and links about the appliance and how to build it can be found here:

Testing it with hosted engine is the next step.

Greetings
