Feature pages are design documents that developers have created while collaborating on oVirt.

Most of them are outdated, but provide historical design context.

They are not user documentation and should not be treated as such.

Current status

  • Status: Design Stage
  • Last updated date: Tue May 08 2012

Detailed Description

This means moving from the existing network service, not editing files directly anymore, determining what files NetworkManager changes and ensure they’re persisted correctly.

Benefit to oVirt

This migration ensures that Node can still be based on Fedora and doesn’t need major workarounds.

(Probably) affected parts:

  • Node
    • TUI
    • o-c-* scripts
    • installer
  • VDSM (?)
