Also note that doing this manually, not using the all-in-one plugin, is unsupported and might cause problems (iirc _will_ cause). Meaning: Do _not_ do the following: install and setup engine, then add the host it's on as a "host". > > > If so any down side ? > > You'll have less resources available for VMs on the host running the engine. It's also a bit more complex, and generally considered suitable only for very small installations (just one machine) etc. With hosted-engine, even if you start with a single host, if you add one in the future, you'll be able to migrate the engine VM to the other host and have HA for it. -- Didi _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
