Hi, I havent study much on oVirt, but it is safe implement it in VM mode? How about if that physical machine down? oVirt can still perform automate load-balance or migration? Personally for me, it is single point of failure in the infrastructure if deploy oVirt in VM. Thanks.

On the FAQ page here: http://ovirt.org/faq.html it only talks about getting the vm image, and if you click on the installation instructions, it only tells you how to set it up in a vm.

Re: oVirt
Soren and others, oVirt or Enomalism as a remote VM manager would be absolutely fantastic. Currently, oVirt is set up so that you put it on its own guest VM, though "Brazen" (Dinkel?) says it will not always be so. Enomalism is written in Python and uses MySQL for something, I don't know EXACTLY what. oVirt uses Ruby on Rails. Beyond dependencies, features need to be compared. For example, Will migration/load balancing be available in these software packages? "Beholder" on #enomalism implied that oVirt and "E" have similar but different goals. We'll have to see. In any case, getting a graphical VM manager would be a great thing to have integrated with Ubuntu. I know E has a .deb package on their site, so it might not be hard to get them put in the repos. -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam

Virtualization managment across a machine is great, however across multiple servers from a central point, that is a great step forward.

oVirt
Given that KVM is the preferred virtualization solution and that we have Virtual Machine Manager to manage a single instance, is there an chance we will be seeing oVirt anytime soon? http://ovirt.org/ From their home page: "From running a few virtual machines on a single host to managing thousands of VMs over hundreds of hosts on a network, oVirt is built to make virtualization easy and expand to meet your needs." I need a way to manage many machines Amazon EC2 style and this looks like a great tool. Currently I'm writing lots of code to do the job but I would love to dump it in exchange for something like this. While I'm wishing for the moon I may as well as ask for Cobbler: http://cobbler.et.redhat.com/ It basically make PXE boot setup painless for virtualized installs of KVM etc. Both of these projects are part(?) sponsored by RedHat as an "Emerging Technology Project", whatever that means. There brethren are: Augeas - A configuration editing tool and API libvirt - The open source virtualization API Cobbler - OS provisioning and profile management oVirt - Virtualization management across the data center FreeIPA - Identity, policy and audit management Virtual Machine Manager - Virtualization management from the Func - A secure, scriptable remote control framework & API I believe these all part of RedHat's Linux Automation for IT https://www.redhat.com/f/pdf/LinuxAutomation_whitepaper.pdf Is someone porting these at this time?
