(Redirected from Ovirt Engine Cluster Setup)
Contents
Initial Setup
follow the following instructions on each node of the Ovirt Engine Cluster servers:
Install CentOS 7.2
Partitioning
The disk named virt is going to host the VM image of the VM that contains the OVirt Engine.
This device is passed directly to the ovirt-engine KVM.
The sync disk is used for different configuration files that are shared between the cluster nodes.
Examples are the configuration of the openVPN cluster resource.
