I confirm that on three guest systems: CentOS 5.10, CentOS 6.4 and
Fedora 20 all x86_64 I get:

$ sudo /usr/sbin/dmidecode | grep -A2 "System Information"
System Information
Manufacturer: oVirt
Product Name: oVirt Node

This on oVirt 3.3.2 with Fedora 19 oVirt stable repo.

nice to know.
Thanks,
Gianluca
