Hi,

It look interesting.
Would you please point me some document that cover in detail ?

I was looking for mechanism where I can monitor guest application.
If application get failed or crash then I need to restart or start other VM.


Such monitoring should probably be done outside the VM.

Is it possible in ovirt ?


There's a fence_rhevm script in the fence-agents pacakge, but it needs a
bit of tweaking to work with 4.x
Y.

I though I will use hook but as you explain it clear me that my understand
was wrong.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks,
~Rohit
