The following have also been requested without references to bugzilla: please review and open RFEs as needed.
- Configure Engine Firewall through oVirt GUI
- Provide easier way to make oVirt VM-portal (if engine is set up in internal network) publicly avalible.
lxc containers
Remove requirement to update compatibility version of a VM prior to RHV-M upgrade
I would like to see better integration with vGPU and virtual infiniband passthru interfaces, mostly the ability to easily 'cold migrate' or clone VMs between servers with same type vGPU and virtual infiniband passthru where the VM itself doesn't care if the infiniband hardware address changed or that its running on another gpu card, just so it is similar enough to function when powered up without having to manually dig through the VM config to figure out what is being passed thru and manually reconfiguring it, shutdown and restart. vGPU is hiding under edit VM custom properties with no way to see the vgpu options there, and infiniband is under host devices in a completely different part of the engine UI. Migrating VMs between hosts is one of the best features of oVirt, but it completely breaks in this advanced hardware use case.
Backup tool, better interface performance, updates HE without damaging
snapshot UI improvements, Vmware to Ovirt migration tool enhancement, support Amazon linux guest operating system support
iops monitoring, local storage in shared clusters,...
Nodes non dependent of engine. With this in case of engine crash, it is possible manage the hosts and VMS without engine dependency.
iScsi Multipath
Better UI improvement - Like Cloudstack Primate
Backup and replication solution
Node VM management UI and minimal configuration
Monitoring and orchestration, cloud layer
Improve error log messages - Some of the errors in the event log are really hard to troubleshoot. Often I have found rebooting my oVirt engine has fixed issues.
A documented way to change the management network for HostedEngine Enviroments
Was very happy with Ovirt. Gluster integration was weak but usable. Stable CentOS future unreliable/unsure.
Backup management via gui
1) Manage local/ephimeral storage natively just like in vSphere and Proxmox without using an hook
2) Ability to choose which Storage Domain attach to which cluster like in vSphere (and not all SDs attached to all hosts in the DC)
3) Use OVS switch natively instead of Linux Bridge and implement OVS features
4) extend OVN capabilities (like NAT) natively without Neutron dependencies and add a graphical representation of the physical/logical networks like in OpenStack
5) add S3 as external provider for both import and export
