Hi,
thanks for bringing this up, based on the fact that el7 is based on
fedora 19 I assume it should work, as ovirt runs on fedora 19 too.
I hope the redhat dev team keeps that in mind when changing stuff
in el7.
As you point out, the qemu-kvm version is one of the most interesting
things, especially the compiler flags (live migration anyone?).

Hi.
There's been a bit of chatter about what is required for Fedora 20 support for
ovirt.
I can't seem to find newer fedora19 based node isos anymore. Has there been a
conscious decision to standardize on the el6 based node iso?
Is an F20 based node iso something that is being worked on?
I hear that el7 might be announced this month. Presumably Centos 7.0 won't be far
away after that.
I've done some test installs of RHEL 7 beta to get a look at what packages are in
use.
Of particular interest to me is the qemu-kvm package - the version of which seem to be
important for live snapshots and live migrations (something we don't seem to do well
right now).
EL beta7 has this version - qemu-kvm-1.5.3-19.el7.x86_64.rpm
Given the issues with needing newer versions of certain packages than what is in EL 6.5,
is this situation likely to be improved greatly when Centos 7 is available?
I don't recall seeing much discussion about ovirt running under el7. Is this being
looked at at this stage, or given the fact there is only a beta of rhel7 to work with
right now are we just waiting for the release before deciding too much?
