Thank you guys ! Wow... this complicates the things, since reinstalling the hosts with centos instead of oVirt node distribution would give me a bit of headache. The dell hosts are already running in production. I think it would be really nice if standard node would support installing management software for well known brands like dell, hp, lenovo, supermicro, etc... I am sure we cannot track every server brand in the world, but in realitty there are just a couple of them most spreaded across ovirt node installations. I will try to see what I can do, although I am a bit afraid to not break the os somehow...
