I have had many people come to my blog looking how to install oVirt 3.5 software on the new CentOS 7. Much of this content is the same as my 3.4 post, but I thought I would keep it separate. Below are simple step by step instructions for installing the node and getting it configured for the hosted engine. Installation RequirementsPlease Note: Installing Hosted Engine on CentOS 7 requires oVirt 3.5.1 Please Note: Both the node and engine will be running CentOS 7 (Minimal Installation) Please Note: Ensure the host is fully updated via “yum update” and rebooted before proceeding PrerequisitesDNSEnsure you have set up hostnames for the host and engine. If you do not have a DNS server configured and you are only testing oVirt on a single server, you can use /etc/hosts instead. I have the following: Engine: Hostname: engine.xrsa.net, IP Address: 192.168.122.101/24 Host: Hostname: ovirt01.xrsa.net, IP Address: 192.168.122.100/24 Ensure you have set up NFS mount points for the engine and virtual machines. If you do not have a shared NFS server and you are only testing oVirt, you can configure NFS locally on the host instead.
Verify you can see the correct mount points.
InstallationNTPThis not a requirement, but it is recommended that you keep your servers time in sync:
You may put your own NTP servers in /etc/ntp.conf if required. Once you have verified DNS and NFS, install the required repositories and packages.
We will need an ISO for the hosted engine installation.
Now all the prerequisites are in place, verify DNS and then go through the hosted-engine wizard.
The hosted-engine wizard will give you VNC details so you can connect to the hosted engine virtual machine and install CentOS 7.
Once installed choose option (1) on the hosted-engine wizard, it will wait until you have rebooted the hosted engine virtual machine. The wizard will give you another set of VNC details to connect to if you need it. However, if you configured networking during the install you should be able to SSH instead. Once you have connected to the hosted engine, download the repositories, configure NTP and run through the ovirt-engine wizard. Please make sure the admin password matches up with the password set in the hosted-engine wizard. Please note: Ensure DNS is configured properly so the engine can resolve itself and the host, else the installation will fail! Please note: While in the engine setup wizard below ensure you put a proper ACL for the “NFS export ACL” option. If you do not you will not be able to activate the ISO_DOMAIN later.
Once finished go back to the hosted-engine wizard and finish off the installation by choosing option (1). It will ask you one final time for the hosted engine to be shutdown, wait a few minutes and it will come back up automatically. After around a minute you can verify the state of the hosted engine virtual machine by using the following command:
Data Domain and ISO_Domain SetupBefore you can create virtual machines in oVirt you need to create a Data Domain and ensure the ISO_DOMAIN is attached to the Default cluster. Navigate to https://engine.xrsa.net and login with admin. Create a new Data / NFS Domain by going to “System -> Storage -> New Domain”: You must wait until the NFS01 Data Domain is in an active state. Once activated attach the ISO_DOMAIN to the Default Data Center: Please note: If you are having issues attaching ISO_DOMAIN to the cluster you might have forgot to add a proper ACL on the “NFS export ACL” option during the engine wizard. You can check this as follows:
If everything went as expected you should see both the NFS01 and ISO_DOMAIN in an up and active state: Uploading ISO ImagesThere is no GUI based ISO upload tool during this time, so to upload ISO images you must login to the engine first and run the following commands:
Using oVirtAt this point everything should be up and running for you to start creating virtual machines.
