Hello, If I understand well, the ISO node is the best solution to have the "smallest" OS, but maybe I will have problems with some functions, like SSH keys, integration with Centreon, etc... Daniel Helgenberger said : "all changes you make manually do not survive a reboot".
So, the best option is to install a basic OS (for me, a Debian one), and then, to add oVirt-node packages... Now, let's go ;-) Thank you. David.
