I want to test oVirt with real hardware, no more nested VMs.
3 hosts, each vm will be Fedora (maybe CentOS, I prefer Fedora)
What is the install process?

Sandro,
If & when one decides to "graduate" & use real hardware, what is the
install process?

The install process depends on how you want to design your lab .
You can have a small deployment with just 3 hosts in hyperconverged
setup or a large datacenter with 200 hypervisors and one or more
dedicated SAN for the storage.
If you go with an hyperconverged setup, you can install oVirt Node on
3 hosts and then on one of them use cockpit to deploy gluster and
hosted engine on top of it in hyperconverged mode.

You can find an installation guide here:
http://www.ovirt.org/documentation/install-guide/Installation_Guide/

Is the gluster part still automated or that has to be done manually?

If you go with hyperconverged mode it's now automated. You can find
more info here:
http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/gluster/gdeploy-cockpit-integration/
Sahina, please ensure above link is updated. I see it shows the
feature still in WIP while it's been released.

Another question, what type of use cases & jobs is oVirt being
deployed in & how are people getting tech support?

About use cases for oVirt you can find some examples here:
http://www.ovirt.org/community/user-stories/users-and-providers/
If you want dedicated support, I would recommend to get a Red Hat
Virtualization (which is oVirt with technical support and some
additions) subscription getting Red Hat support.
Another place to get support if you stay with oVirt is the community:
this mailing list, the IRC channel and social media, have a look here
for other contacts: http://www.ovirt.org/community/

I assume people are using oVirt in production?

Sure, I was just wondering why you were running in nested
virtualization :-)
Being your use case a "playground" environment, I can suggest you to
have a look at Lago http://lago.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ [1]
and at Lago demo at https://github.com/lago-project/lago-demo [2]
to help you preparing an isolated test environment for your
learning.

I have one CentOS7 host (physical) & 3x oVirt nodes 4.1.2 (these are
vm's).

Hi, can you please share the use case for this setup?

I have installed vdsm-hook-nestedvm on the host.

Should I install vdsm-hook-macspoof on the 3x node vm's?
