cannot install oVirt-engine

[Tony Albers]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to use oVirt on SDL, but it's kinda difficult.

If I follow the install instructions on https://www.ovirt.org/download/  I run into a load of missing dependencies.

It seems that CentOS has a repo: 

[ovirt-4.2-centos-ovirt42]

name=CentOS-7 - oVirt 4.2

baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/virt/$basearch/ovirt-4.2/

gpgcheck=1

enabled=1

gpgkey=https://www.centos.org/keys/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-SIG-Virtualization

This contains the packages I'm missing.

Is there something like this I can use on SDL if I want to avoid CentOS repos?

I think especially these are interesting:

rhel-7-server-rpms

rhel-7-server-optional-rpms

rhel-7-server-extras-rpms

They should provide the packages I need together with the ovirt release repo: https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release42.rpm

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hullo,

I just tried installing that ovirt-release rpm and after a few obvious mods it worked:

yum -y install https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release42.rpm

cp /usr/share/ovirt-release42/ovirt-el7-x86_64-deps.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/ovirt-4.2-dependencies.repo

sed -i -e 's|fc\$releasever|el7|' /etc/yum.repos.d/ovirt-4.2.repo

After that

yum install ovirt-engine

resolves dependencies for me though I didn't try actually installing.

Hi JP,

Yeah, I noted that the -dependencies.repo file was missing. Never thought of it being put in /usr/share and not in /etc/yum.repos.d -must be a misconfig somewhere.

Thanks!
