 Very simple setup. Make sure to have enough space for the NFS share. In this example I setup a quick single host (Dell server) for proof of concept in using Ovirt as disaster recovery for ESXi <ref>https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/how-to/hosted-engine/#fresh-install</ref>
 *Make sure to decide on whether firewalld is enabled or not as shown in a known bug<ref>https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1348434</ref>. For a quick test I decided to disable most security such as the firewall, selinux, and allowing everything to access the NFS share if they pretend to be the vdsm user. This will not be the case for production.

 ===Import from VMWare ESXi===
 *Add an external provider. Though this is not necessary as you can add this information during the import process. However this will cut down on the steps for each manual import.
