Hello Oved,

thanks for your response, but, for me, provisioning means "Install
Operating System and other packages". Is it possibile to do this directly
using oVirt? I didn't find anything about it and that's the resason why I'm
looking for others tools.
By and I can just start oVirt VM in "Run Once" mode, and putting the mac
address in my PXE installation could start automatically. Problem is that I
need to modify my PXE to create an automatic system. That's the reason puu
me to look for anything else.

Marco
