The above two can be dropped (also for CentOS 6). This includes the centos-release-gluster310 and centos-release-gluster-312 packages in Extras.
Can we keep 3.12? It's still consumed by oVirt 4.2. Adding oVirt devel team, just in case we'll need urgently to rebase on newer Gluster on CentOS 7.6 GA or block upgrade to CentOS 7.6 from oVirt side till we figure out how to handle.

These three are still maintained.

3.12 does not get any updates anymore... Ideally users do not consume that version but have moved on to 4.0 or 4.1 already. Gluster 5 is available and should get announced soon (not sure if that can happen with the CentOS 7.6 release). If theere are difficulties with upgrading, don't hesitate to reach out on gluster-devel@gluster.org for assistence. Niels

Hello, I was wondering if there are any upgrade documents available for upgrading to gluster 4.1 with oVirt 4.2. Best Olaf

I think oVirt expects the Gluster/NFS server to be available. This service has been dropped from Gluster in version 4 and has been replaced with the more featured NFS-server from the NFS-Ganesha project. I remember that there have been discussions about replacing the dependency in oVirt, but I do not know what plan and timeline came out of it. IIRC it was not a trivial change, but the end-of-life date for Gluster 3.12 has been known for at least 1.5 years now. The deprecation of Gluster/NFS has been announced even before that. My hope is that oVirt can be deployed without NFS-server, and just consume Gluster FUSE mounts, or the userspace libgfapi interface. Otherwise it may be needed to configure NFS-Ganesha, and that might be more difficult (it can do high-availability correctly, as opposed to Gluster/NFS). Niels

Is it possible for us to remove the centos-release-gluster312 package from CentOS Extras, but keep the gluster-3.12 repository available for you to consume with oVirt 4.2? That would prevent users from installing an unmaintained version, but you can still download the packages. We also forcefully disable the unmaintained repositories (as they will get deleted later), but I can wait with that if it helps. This is done through https://github.com/CentOS-Storage-SIG/centos-release-gluster-legacy in case you're interested. So, what I need from you, is an estimation of dates of when the following actions can be done: 1. delete centos-release-gluster312 from CentOS Extras 2. remove the gluster-3.12 repository from the mirrors 3. update centos-release-gluster-legacy with Gluster 3.12 deprecation Thanks, Niels

I think this can be removed, we don't have a direct requirement on that package
2. remove the gluster-3.12 repository from the mirrors
I started discussion with oVirt development team about switching to a newer Gluster release, I need to get feedback from them.
3. update centos-release-gluster-legacy with Gluster 3.12 deprecation
I think this can be updated while removing centos-release-gluster312 from CentOS Extras
