oVirt Mirrors
by Andrew Lau 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi, I was wondering if there were any plans on drumming up an oVirt mirror down in Australia. It takes me nearly a few hours just to grab all the required packages to spin up a new box. Alternatively, the mirror does not seem to support rsync. Is there a recommended way to sync? (w/o ISOs) Thanks, Andrew

Adding Fedora 20 Support
by Justin Brown 02 Jun '14

02 Jun '14

Hello, I recently came across the LWN article on oVirt 3.4 (http://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/600370/dfa9cdd4f5ee0bb3/) and was discussing the lack of Fedora 20 support with an oVirt contributor, bkp. It's been 4 months since I last looked at running oVirt. I use Fedora 20 on all of my infrastructure, so I was quite surprised that there is still not support for running the engine on F20. Anyways, rather than just complaining, I figured it would be more helpful to volunteer some time to fix the issue. 1) I've tried looking through the oVirt bug reports to see what's happening with Fedora 20. So far, I have identified three issues that prevent 3.4 from working. Fedora includes sos-3, sos doesn't have support for all ovirt plugins, and only has Wildfly instead of JBoss-as. The full list of bugs is listed in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1060198. 2) I was looking through the various oVirt yum repositories and noticed that oVirt provides JBoss-AS along with tons of packages for the el6 platform; however, for both Fedora 19 and 20, oVirt almost entirely uses built-in packages. This seems like strange behavior where the project has gone to great lengths to make sure oVirt works on platforms with outdated or nonexistent packages, but won't override or use alternates on platforms that contain overly new packages. Could someone explain why oVirt doesn't package these for Fedora, particularly jboss-as? 3) I'm not making accusations or trying to cause trouble, but could someone explain to an outsider what happened with Fedora 20 support? oVirt is a complicated project to say the least and, after a brief look at some of the RPMs last night, the packages are just as complex. Basically, I'm trying to figure out if there were some intractable problems that prevented oVirt from -- more or less -- shipping tweaked Fedora 19 dependencies for oVirt on Fedors 20, or whether it was more a lack of manpower, a lack of interested user base, or perhaps I'm just getting started on digesting the packages, but I think it should be feasible to pull the problematic packages from F19, tweak them to ovirt-* versions (eg. ovirt-sos), and tweak the oVirt packages to use the non-system paths for those packages. Publish the whole thing through COPR, and if oVirt is happy with the results, merge them into the official packages and repository. I know that there will be some apprehension about the project taking on maintaining these dependency packages, but I'm looking to get 3.4 working on Fedora 20 as a stopgap until 3.5 is released with support for native packages. Thoughts? Thanks, Justin
