Thanks again to Qixiang Wan for giving the presentation since I could not attend the workshop.
A couple questions came up that there were unclear answers to at the time. I wanted to put the questions and my responses out here for people. Q: What's the best solution for adding your own applications to the node? A: The answer given was a combination of using livecd-tools and the future plugins feature for achieving this. Using livecd-tools is not recommended. It may work, but it's not something that we would recommend long-term. The plugins feature will be the recommended approach to adding new features/tools to the node. I'm interested to know what people are looking to add as applications though. ovirt-node's value is that it is small and generally a blackbox. If the applications are monitoring agents, and things like that, then the correct path would likely be plugins. If it's something else, then please share what you're looking to add so we can find the right approach for you. Another solution is to submit patches that add your functionality to the base image. Q: How can I pull different configurations for many nodes? A: I'm not completely clear on what is being asked here. What types of configurations are being asked about? We do provide kernel command line parameters for most configurations so PXE is a solution for booting a lot of machines with similar configurations. It's hard to answer this without more clarity on what you're trying to accomplish.
