As the three servers are Centos8 minimal installs. + oVirt HCI wizard to
keep them lean and mean... a couple questions

1) which version of python would I need for this (note in script about
python 2 but isn't that deprecated?)
[root@thor /]# yum install python
Last metadata expiration check: 2:29:38 ago on Wed 30 Sep 2020 01:18:32 PM
EDT.
No match for argument: python
There are following alternatives for "python": python2, python36, python38
Error: Unable to find a match: python

2)  When you have three nodes.. one is set to host the ovirt-engine active,
and another as backup.  If this is added to rc.local.   Of the two nodes
hosting HA for oVirt-engine.. node which boots first will host (or so it
seems). I think if I add this to both those hosts .. it will not create
issues.  Any thoughts?
