Hi,

Thank you both for your responses,

In a conclusion :

- Don't mix up several solution that provide HA :
- either choose oVirt HA.
- or use software HA inside a VM.

And since I need to monitor a service inside the VM for HA purpose, the
implementation will be :
- Create two VMs (nodes) without oVirt HA enabled.
- Create the shared storage.
- Configure pacemaker with stonith using fence rhev.
- Test the configuration and my be try to test a hypervisor crash to see
the behavior of the solution.

Regards.
