Ovirt devel - Jul 2010 - Build fails due to missing ovirt-node-recipe.ks

Hi,

I'm having some problems building ovirt.  The build fails during the 
final ovirt build stage in the instructions.  The failure is because it 
can't find "/usr/share/ovirt-node-tools/ovirt-node-recipe.ks". 
I've
checked and sure enough it's not there.  Has anyone else come across 
this problem?

Building on FC13 using the instructions found here:

https://fedorahosted.org/ovirt/wiki/Build

The git clones were done today (02 July, 2010 Australian EST).

Cheers,
Justin.

I've fixed the wiki page to give the right command instruction, which is
"make rpms".
will generate the ovirt-node and ovirt-node-tools RPMs.

You shouldn't need to RPMs any more. The RPMs were just a means for
delivering the ISO to the host system from a yum repository, which is no
longer needed.

ovirt-agent is a daemon which creates a few QMF agents that communicate
hardware details back to the ovirt server when it comes up. When the
node comes up and asks for its configuration details, the details sent
down are based on whatever hardware was reported by ovirt-agent. If the
hardware hasn't changed, then you won't see any impact. But if you bring
up a new node and the agent fails then you won't be able to deploy VMs
to that node since it's hardware capabilities will be unknown.
