Description Olimp Bockowski 2016-11-22 14:08:02 UTC
Description of problem:
In "Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.5 Installation Guide" we have to specify what are requirements for RHEL-based hypervisor _AND_ RHEV-H.
There is statement in section 3.3 regarding RHEL-based and it is misleading:
"If you are using the RHEV-M Virtual Appliance, the /tmp directory must be at least 50 GB."
In case of RHEV-H there is needed 50 GB in /data directory (provided by /dev/mapper/HostVG-Data)

Comment 1 Olimp Bockowski 2016-11-22 18:23:53 UTC
I think remarkable is that in 3.6 RHEV guide "Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.6 Self-Hosted Engine Guide" we have such information:

"The recommended method is to use the RHEV-M Virtual Appliance to automate the setup. To use the appliance, the data partition must be at least 60 GB"
