Hi Sandro,
From my findings, the engine-setup command will not work out-of-box on any other distro than centos, rhel or ibm-powerkvm.
I intend to submit a patch to the otopi package to allow the engine-setup command to run on Oracle Linux too.
Also, I intend to submit other patches regarding OS validation for other components.
May I suggest we turn the OS validation more generic or include other distros like you mentioned in the previous e-mail?
Regards,

So, ELRepo no longer supports CentOS Stream 8.x
I used to be able to:
Chelsio T320 10GB/s Card Mods
1. rpm --import https://www.elrepo.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-elrepo.org
2. yum install https://www.elrepo.org/elrepo-release-8.el8.elrepo.noarch.rpm
3. yum install kmod-cxgb3
However this no longer works, how would i go about compiling the RPM from source tar and then push the kmod into oVirt? This worked in March of 2021; however due to a lack of Resources ElRepo no longer supports the chosen Stream OS of oVirt.
I need to build the kmod-cxgb3 from source for this to work.
Hi, I would recommend asking on CentOS developers mailing list at https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/ .
If it's not possible to consume some packages that specifically require RHEL or a corresponding rebuilt version, I would also consider either using RHEL or give Rocky, Alma, Springvale (or any other distribution rebuilding RHEL) a try. Current version of oVirt, 4.4.8 should work perfectly fine on RHEL 8.4 or equivalent.
Thanks,
