[ovirt-users] Add OS to Drop Down List

[Peter Calum]

Hi,

I tried this and it did work :)

# Log into oVirt Manager

cd /usr/share/ovirt-engine/conf

nano osinfo-defaults.properties

# Insert your new OS  (i've done it after Redhat 6_x64)

# CentOS6x64(3030, OsType.Linux, true),
os.centos_6x64.id.value = 3030
os.centos_6x64.name.value = CentOS 6.x x64
os.centos_6x64.derivedFrom.value = rhel_6x64
os.centos_6x64.devices.audio.value = ich6
os.centos_6x64.devices.diskInterfaces.value = IDE, VirtIO_SCSI, VirtIO
os.centos_6x64.devices.diskInterfaces.value.3.0 = IDE, VirtIO
os.centos_6x64.devices.diskInterfaces.value.3.1 = IDE, VirtIO
os.centos_6x64.devices.diskInterfaces.value.3.2 = IDE, VirtIO
os.centos_6x64.resources.maximum.ram.value = 3145728

# Save file

service ovirt-engine stop
service ovirt-engine start

# Wait 3-4 minutes

# Edit a VM and look up the new OS in OS list

I have also tried to do this in a overload file but it does not work

Peter C
