<br>
I have oVirt running in a VM off my Desktop (Fedora 17 w/ KVM
& Virt-Manager) off my iSCSI NAS. <br>
<br>
I've attached Server #1 as my first host (it's running
ovirt-node).<br>
<br>
In the process of setting up my storage domains. I have a few
questions to the experts out there:<br>
<br>
1) How do I add my CD .ISOs to setup new VMs? Create iSCSI storage
domain? But then how do I copy my ISOs to it?<br>
</blockquote>
Create an ISO storage domain and use the ovirt-iso-uploader to add
your ISOs and .vfd files into that domain.<br>

2) Can I run my oVirt VM from ovirt-node machine, without running
it in oVirt (ie. setup iSCSI in virt-manager (as it is now) and
run oVirt from virt-manager... then I can manage my hosts through
that ovirt VM?<br>
</blockquote>
Huh? You could run the oVirt Manager from a VM managed by
virt-manager... yes. Running the oVirt manager inside a VM on a
hypervisor (ie. ovirt-node) controlled by that same manager isn't
supported AFAIK because the mgr. could get fenced. <br>
<br>
To summarize, you can pretty much run the oVirt manager on any
supported OS as long as that OS instance isn't running on a
hypervisor (ie. ovirt-node) controlled by *that* manager.<br>
<br>
If you haven't noticed the vocabulary to describe the various
components can get a little confusing. ;) <br>

Not sure if I'm making myself clear... but I'm making progress. I
think as long as you are not managing your oVirt vm through oVirt
itself, the solution should work fine! Just trying to see if I can
get that done on an ovirt-node machine...<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>

<div>What you're saying is that I should just run it
seperatly and not manage it with itself (oVirt)? keep
it on my shared storage so that I can run it off any
of the 2 servers? But not manage it with oVirt
(itself). I think I'm starting to get it now...</div>

<div>Nic, how did you make out with this? I'm looking to do
the same thing and am wondering if there is any risk in
running the engine on a VM managed by the same engine, as
you were suggesting before. Did you give this a shot?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Itamar, why did you steer Nic away from this?</div>
