[ovirt-users] Ovirt-Engine HA

[Sandvik Agustin]

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the quick reply, "self hosted engine" are you talking about the
hosted-engine? I tried hosted-engine, I think twice, and I'm having problem
with VLAN(s), I can't manipulate the NIC of the hosted engine.

I think I need to read more about this "self hosted engine".

TIA
Sandvik
