Hi !!

Reading the oVirt installation guide says that when a local ISO storage
domain is configured during installation the virtio-win ISO and Virtual
Floppy Drive (VFD) images, containing the VirtIO drivers for Windows
virtual machines, are automatically copied to the new storage domain. The 
rhev-tools-setup
ISO, containing the oVirt Guest Tools for Windows virtual machines are
also copied to the domain.

I'm running oVirt under FC 16, and I don't have those packages installed,
what could it be ?

I downloaded from
http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/virtio-win/latest/images/bin/ the
iso file but it doesn't have the floppy file (useful for the Windows setup
installation) and also drivers for Windows 2008.

Under RHEV when having a Windows VM at the admin GUI you can see what
applications are installed, IP address, who's logged in, etc., on the VM.
This is possible on oVirt too ?

Is there any guest tool for Linux VMs ? (RHEL or CentOS)

Thanks!

  This is a known limit of ovirt.  You can use the Same ISO / floppy disk
for windows that is used for RHEV.  For whatever reason the floppy isn't
available from Red Hat any-more.  You can get the last known release of it
using the way back machine.

I have no access to RHEL to confirm but I have been told that RHEV drivers
work fine under ovirt.

CentOS you can download those from
http://wiki.dreyou.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/ovirt_rpm_start .  You need to
add the repo listed at the top and then if you look at the bottom there is
the install for the guest.

Thanks
Robert
