Hello,
We have been using oVirt for many years, and despite Red Hat's
withdrawal, the project remains important to us, and we plan to continue
using it.
We have a rather unique setup, as we primarily use iSCSI for performance
needs and Gluster for distributed and high-capacity storage. The end of
life (EOL) of Gluster is particularly concerning for us as we plan the
next upgrades to our infrastructure.
We haven’t really considered Ceph, as we lack the human expertise to
maintain such a solution. The complexity and fine-tuning required for
CephFS to achieve a good configuration are significant hurdles that we
are not ready to overcome at this time.
One potential alternative might be to replace Gluster volumes with
MinIO, but we are still evaluating our options. We are closely watching
how the community evolves to ensure we follow the best path forward.
Best regards,

Oracle still contributes, albeit they have their own variant OLVM

Hey,
I don't think there are any plans, at the moment. We have been
running oVirt for 3 years now and are pretty happy with it.
But it seems, that it is no longer a priority for Red Hat and
it has not been seriously picked up in the community. Most
users seems to have moved on to other platforms.
We use oVirt with CEPH and are very happy about it and has
been running very stable. We did have the occational problem,
such as the kernels in CentOS 8 that caused KVM to "pause"
indefinitly, but we are able to solve most of that ourselves.
The solution was to upgrade to an AlmaLinux 9 distro that had
a kernel that was not impacted.. However, our solution is not
a hyperconverged setup. Before we used NFS which worked very
reliable as well. This will open up for alternative storage
solutions (standalone, redundant, distributed) as long as NFS
is supported.
And you are right, Red Hat announced a while ago that
GlusterFS would be EoL as per 31 December 2024.
I guess you either need to run on what you have now, find an
alternative or join the community for future updates :-(
