Sure. I have two test-systems. The first is running a stock oVirt Node 4.3 which states "CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)" as version string. The qemu and ceph packages are: Name : qemu-img-ev Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 10 Version : 2.10.0 Release : 21.el7_5.3.1 Name : qemu-kvm-common-ev Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 10 Version : 2.10.0 Release : 21.el7_5.3.1 Name : qemu-kvm-ev Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 10 Version : 2.10.0 Release : 21.el7_5.3.1 Name : librados2 Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 1 Version : 0.94.5 Release : 2.el7 Name : librbd1 Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 1 Version : 0.94.5 Release : 2.el7 The Centos 7 system is a centos minimal installation with the following repos being enabled: CentOS-7 - Base CentOS-7 - Updates CentOS-7 - Extras ovirt-4.2-epel ovirt-4.2-centos-gluster123 ovirt-4.2-virtio-win-latest ovirt-4.2-centos-qemu-ev ovirt-4.2-centos-opstools centos-sclo-rh-release ovirt-4.2-centos-ovirt42 ovirt-4.2 The version numbers for the qemu packages are the same as above as they're from the ovirt-4.2-centos-qemu-ev repository. Also the version numbers for librados2 and librbd1 match, while they're from the centos-base (instead of ovirt-base) repository. When I activate the ceph-centos-luminous repository librbd1 and librados2 get upgraded to the following versions (leaving the qemu packages untouched, what is as expected): Name : librados2 Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 2 Version : 12.2.5 Release : 0.el7 Name : librbd1 Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 2 Version : 12.2.5 Release : 0.el7 So from my perspective on side of oVirt there should be thaught about a way to add a more recent ceph library version into the ovirt node image, as it is not the most common task to add extra repositories here (and I'm not whether that might break the image based upgrade-path). I will go for Centos based hosts in my case, as I'm a bit more flexible than so at least for me there is no real need to get the above noted implemented quickly :-)
