Is there a way to "cluster" or replicate the userportal app or is it strictly a single instance? Any thoughts to the scale of a large VDI system with 10,000 desktops and their VMs and how that impacts the ovirt-engine and the user-portal app?

it shouldn't be a huge issue to deploy the user portal on another 
machine (although current rpm may require the engine).

juan - i don't remember if you already looked at this or not yet?

Brian - btw, the user portal is pretty lightweight - its mainly java 
script going to the client, and polling lightly on status changes (which 
changes if it is in focus on the client (faster polling) or not (slower 
polling).

spice also doesn't go through the user portal today.
