For those of you testing ovirt. Is it possible to configure all of

machine
to try ovirt out. (or use amazon ec2/linode)
you could run the engine on EC2.
but you can run guests on it (unless you use fake qemu, which will
launch fake guests).
there isn't currently an AMI
I did actually build and provide an Engine AMI for one of our very early builds
(even before the first formal release) which I blogged about [1] but I didn't
end up doing a new one for the actual release. If there is interest I guess I
could probably do it again, but without hosts somewhere to actually run VMs
it's a very limited look at the engine. Especially with the new 'all in one'
mode meaning with even just one host with virt extensions you can get some VMs
up and running.

well, for someone to just play around to get an impression of
capabilities, you could:
1. yum install vdsm vdsm-hook-faqemu ovirt-setup ovirt-engine
ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-allinone
2. edit /etc/vdsm/vdsm.conf and set vars.fake_kvm_support=True
3. run ovirt-engine-setup
this should get you an all-in-one node in a guest, which you can do
everything with, including creating and running virtual machines (fake
one, which won't really run).
