Hi,
Could somebody know, how long will be supported ovirt on centos 6.5 as
host/portal server?
I would like to planning for long time (2-3 years) for my production
environment.
Thanks,
Tibor
Hi Tibor,
this one is hard to answer;
Current 3.5.0 works with el6 and hypervisors can use el7 as well.
Next one will be 3.6.0 which is in planning stages, so we still do not have
all the details. The general trend is to move to el7 based platform.
So for a community project, you could stay on latest 3.5 stable, but once
3.6.0 will be out, no additional fixes will be provided to 3.5.x, just the
way it is with 3.4.x these days.
This will cover the time we have from now until 3.6.0 GA, which still has no
final dates. One more thing you want to consider is updates from Centos
for el6. Unsure what happens to 6.5 in a year or so.
