Thank you, Erik.
But before I try the Oracle route, I would have to have more info.
Do I need the Oracle kernel, or can I run it on RHEL?
Oracle Linux allows you to run it with UEK or RHCK (Red Hat Compatible Kernel).
We never tested OLVM (built on oVirt) on RHEL.
Do I need a subscription to get the OLVM Repos?
Oracle has a nasty reputation for giving most of a product away for free, telling you that you need to pay for one critical piece, and then trying to charge you for the last five years (+ interest), whether or not you were actually using it. Forgive me
if I am a bit skeptical.
Oracle Linux and its updates are available for free from 2006 and there’s no intention to change this model.
Support subscription(s) are optional and you can decide to have or skip them.
