We support both. When creating a vm you can select to optimize for Server or Desktop. - For Server we default to creating the vm image by cloning the template to a new disk. The vm does not depend on the template disk. - For Sesktop we default to creating a thin disk using the template disk as a backing file. This vm depends on the template. To select different storage allocation you can open the "Resource Allocation" tab and select Clone or Thin from the "Storage allocation" section. See the attached screenshots.

[ovirt-users] Re: oVirt Hosted Engine Offline Deployment
Moin, There is a package which you need to install before you deploy the engine. It is round 1,1 GB RPM file where the engine vm is implemented. For offline Installation we use the ovirt Version 4.3.9. And remove the ovirt repos because you will lose a lot of time because he try to found euch mirror. Starts in us and stopps in Japan.

I think that first you need to install the appliance and then in offline mode ot should skip connecting to yum repos.
