Hi Hayden If you can do this - the word awesome would be an understatement ;-) I have been using oVirt for 7 years now and it is a fantastic product (I started using it when it was 3.1 or 3.4). I am in a similar position as Jason who started this thread. The main goal of my experiment described above is to see if I can deploy it on bare metal nodes with Rocky as a hypervisor replacement for CentOS. I actually wanted to convert to Proxmox but wanted to give oVirt one more chance :) Thank you. Kind regards, Branimir
