I looked briefly at the ks file for the ovirt spin and it is a lot different
then the live images included in the past. Typically spins SIG only
reviewed live spins, which ovirt doesn't appear to be.
I think it might be better to consider this spin as outside the scope
of Spins SIG, as we would need to rewrite policy to be able to cover
ovirt, and I don't think that is going to happen in a timely fashion.
This specific spin can actually cover multiple use cases. It can boot
and run directly from the cd or be installed to a machine. Then add any
type ofstorage for libvirt and create vm's. It's original form was to
boot up and grab a configuration from a management server which gave out
storage and networking configurations as needed and provision templated
vm's from a web interface. That server framework was been released for
adoption as RHEV-M becomes open source it will replace it. When
installed to a machine and run it provides persistent storage for any
configuration files. The actual image itself stays in the same form as
it would in the iso, only storage for a volume group and grub
configuration are wrapped around it.
There may be multiple methods of running this spin but it will still run
from a cd/iso file just like any other spin.
