[ovirt-users] [ovirt-devel] Cockpit oVirt support

[Marek Libra]

Regarding libvirt, there's fallback to Libvirt provider (part of
cockpit-machines) for VMs which are not managed by oVirt.
For the oVirt ones, oVirt API handles all the actions.

It's not yet implemented, but I'm considering to fallback to Libvirt for
selected actions in case the oVirt API can't be reached. Like for shut down
[1].

Anyway, there's still open question with the Libvirt connection since it's
secured on an oVirt host.
