## oVirt Cloud Provider Deployment

The oVirt cloud provider allows to easily discover and automatically add new VM instances as nodes to your Kubernetes cluster.

The oVirt Cloud Provider requires access to the oVirt REST-API to gather the proper information, the required credential should be specified in the `ovirt-cloud.conf` file:

[connection]
uri = https://localhost:8443/ovirt-engine/api
username = admin@internal
password = admin
```none
[connection]
uri = https://localhost:8443/ovirt-engine/api
username = admin@internal
password = admin
```

In the same file it is possible to specify (using the `filters` section) what search query to use to identify the VMs to be reported to Kubernetes:

[filters]
# Search query used to find nodes
vms = tag=kubernetes
```none
[filters]
# Search query used to find nodes
vms = tag=kubernetes
```

In the above example all the VMs tagged with the `kubernetes` label will be reported as nodes to Kubernetes.

The `ovirt-cloud.conf` file then must be specified in kube-controller-manager:

kube-controller-manager ... --cloud-provider=ovirt --cloud-config=/path/to/ovirt-cloud.conf ...
```shell
kube-controller-manager ... --cloud-provider=ovirt --cloud-config=/path/to/ovirt-cloud.conf ...
```
