Description Michael Tremer 2018-02-26 20:00:20 UTC 
We use a number of packages that should be installed on each system. Those are at least:

EPEL, tmux, sysstat, hdparm, smartmontools, vim-enhanced, htop, atop, tcpdump, mc

Remove firewalld
Comment 1 Michael Tremer 2018-03-07 16:42:24 UTC 
Please add the ovirt client agent to this list.
Comment 2 Timo Eissler 2018-05-07 12:46:58 UTC 
Implemented in common role, but not tested.
Comment 3 Michael Tremer 2018-05-16 15:56:25 UTC 
rsync or backup
Comment 4 Timo Eissler 2018-08-13 14:55:31 UTC 
Done.
Comment 5 Michael Tremer 2018-10-04 15:00:31 UTC 
The VMs are running loads of useless services by default. I guess this is because they are not being installed for running as a VM only, but on baremetal hardware.

On systems that are running as a VM we should remove the following services:

* tuned (sets power save features)
* irqbalance
* audit (the worst invention in history)
* smartmontools (runs smartd in the background which is useless on a VM)
Comment 6 Michael Tremer 2018-10-11 12:05:11 UTC 
Please install wget on all machines
Comment 7 Timo Eissler 2018-11-05 15:02:47 UTC 
Wget will installed on every system now.

There is now a task which removes the listed packages from VMs and another which installs the required ones only on physical hardware.

ovirt-guest-agent won't be started after it has been installed
