[ovirt-users] Slow booting host - restart loop

Hi Bernardo,

we have added timeout to wait until host is booted [1] in oVirt 4.1.2. This
timeout is by default 5 minutes, but it can be extended using following
command:

   engine-config -s ServerRebootTimeout=NNN

where NNN is number of seconds you want to wait until host is booted up.

But be aware that you may be affected by [2], which we are currently trying
to fix.

Regards

Martin Perina
