So I understand that the news is still fresh and there may not be much
going on yet in making Ceph work with ovirt, but I thought I would reach
out and see if it was possible to hack them together and still use
librdb rather then NFS.

I know, why not just use Gluster... the problem is I have tried to use
Gluster for VM storage for years and I still don't think it is ready.
Ceph still has work in other areas, but this is one area where I think
it shines. This is a new lab cluster and I would like to try to use ceph
over gluster if possible.

Unless I am missing something, can anyone tell me they are happy with
Gluster as a backend image store? This will be a small 16 node 10 gig
cluster of shared compute / storage (yes I know people want to keep them
separate).

there was a threat about this recently. afaict, ceph support will require adding a specific ceph storage domain to engine and vdsm, which is a full blown feature (I assume you could try and hack it somewhat with a custom hook). waiting for next version planning cycle to see if/how it gets pushed.
