What is the longevity status of cockpit-machines-ovirt ? I understand it was removed from automatically being in node, due to perceived redundancy.
But is the software package itself going away and/or not going to be usable in the future? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sandro Bonazzola" <sbona...@redhat.com> To: "Budur Nagaraju" <nbud...@gmail.com> Cc: "users" <users@ovirt.org> Sent: Monday, October 12, 2020 5:05:01 AM Subject: [ovirt-users] Re: oVirt-node Il giorno lun 12 ott 2020 alle ore 12:36 Budur Nagaraju < [ mailto:nbud...@gmail.com | nbud...@gmail.com ] > ha scritto: Hi Is there a way to deploy vms on the ovirt node without using the oVirt engine? Hi, if you mean: "Can I use oVirt Node for running VMs without using oVirt Engine?" then yes, you can. oVirt Node is a CentOS Linux derivative and as such you can use virt-manager from your laptop to connect to it and manage VMs there as if it was a normal CentOS. You can also use cockpit for creating local VMs. If you mean: "Can I create VMs from oVirt Node and also manage them from the engine?" the short answer is no. The long answer is: you can still try using cockpit-machines-ovirt [ https://cockpit-project.org/guide/172/feature-ovirtvirtualmachines.html | https://cockpit-project.org/guide/172/feature-ovirtvirtualmachines.html ] which was deprecated in oVIrt 4.3 and removed in 4.4. Or run VMs on oVirt Node and try to make them visible to engine using KVM provider [ https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/#Adding_KVM_as_an_External_Provider | https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/#Adding_KVM_as_an_External_Provider ] But I wouldn't recommend using these flows. -- Sandro Bonazzola MANAGER, SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, EMEA R&D RHV [ https://www.redhat.com/ | Red Hat EMEA ] [ mailto:sbona...@redhat.com | sbona...@redhat.com ] [ https://www.redhat.com/ ] Red Hat respects your work life balance.
