[ovirt-users] hosted engine without the appliance?

[Devin A. Bougie]

Hi, All.  Is it still possible or supported to run a hosted engine without using the oVirt Engine Appliance?  In other words, to install our own OS on a VM and have it act as a hosted engine?  "hosted-engine --deploy" now seems to insist on using the oVirt Engine Appliance, but if it's possible and not a mistake we'd prefer to run and manage our own OS.

Thanks!
Devin
