My understanding is that you can manage oVirt Node with RHEV-M. That
isn't a long term solution, but it allows you to:

- Point RHEV-M at the oVirt export domains
- Shut down oVirt Engine
- Provision some RHEV-H hypervisors
- Live migrate workloads from oVirt Node to RHEV-H
- Shut down oVirt Nodes and move to RHEV-H when they're empty

I think that someone from the oVirt/RHEV team would have to validate
this approach, but it seems to me that this should work.

Cheers,
Dave.
