Hi Sandro, Have not installed a hosted engine nor have installed an ovirt engine , have just installed an ovirt node in one of the bare metal servers and logged into the server using a cockpit. When I browse to ovirt virtual machine "create New vm' is greyed out, is ovirt node dependent on the ovirt engine ?
