[ovirt-users] Re: Remove obsolete Gluster hyperconverged doc
Wait a minute.
Use of GlusterFS as a storage backend is now deperecated and will be
removed in a future update?
What are those who's deployments have GlusterFS as their storage
backend supposed to use as a replacement?
They are to fully understand the opportunities and risks that come from a
community open source project:
1. Risk: the project can die at any time from lack of support
2. Opportunity: if you help developing a sufficiently great alternative it may be taken
aboard
I'm feeling vibes of the SPICE deprecation all over again.....
but
moving all of the VM storage data isn't a quick process, and I don't
want to move it to something else that will also be depercated by a
future RH whim....
If you want to be safe from "a future RH whim" (it's the community, really,
and your organization is free to invest more than RH), you need to look for or create a
community where RH is the minority.
In short, it's somewhat unreasonable to expect others to go to unreasonable lenghts to
support you for free.
But they could have done a much better job at describing just how shaky things were.
