Hey folks,
quick question: If I would like to use specific versions (contained
within the host) and craft myself a specific environment for the hosts
am I correct to assume that only installing the ovirt repo and a gluster
version of my choice (cough, 7.0) would suffice? Then adding the host
via an engine (and taking the ususal steps as you would for an ovirt
node: ssh keys et all)?
To my understanding the rollout is done via ansible so packages will be
installed if not present? The installation is pretty vague on this point
(https://www.ovirt.org/download/):
1. Enable the Base, Optional, and Extra repositories
2. Install Cockpit and the cockpit-ovirt-dashboard plugin:
3. Enable Cockpit
4. Open the firewall
5. - 9. Deploy using a hosted engine.
So, by using a remote engine (aka, like an additional host):
1. Enable the Base, Optional, and Extra repositories
the end?
I would use CentOS 7 as a base which I am very familiar with. I would
also setup Gluster by hand so "Only" the virtualization part needs to be
done.
This would, among other things, grant me perfect host recovery options
for a 1-host disaster case. We are looking at a base CentOS7 install
without any deep modifications (except for some packages etc).
Enjoy your weekend, all! :-)
-Christian.
