Getting Ovirt self hosted engine up and running on Ovirt node is even easier and the preferred operating system of choice. It is basically a trimmed down version of CentOS 8 with just the bits needed to run the Ovirt platform.
To get started we will download and install the latest version of Ovirt node from the Ovirt website.
Once we have the base OS installed and ready we just need to login and start the installation process.
tmux
sudo hosted-engine --deploy
Follow along and answer all the question prompts. It will take the install process awhile depending on hardware specs.
Happy virtualizing!
