I appreciate that this is not really the oVirt teams fault, but a lot of us are really frustrated in trying to find a reliable setup for oVirt/GlusterFS and keep banging our heads against the same wall.

We'd love it if we could use Ceph RBD but for some reason RedHat don't seem to want to drive that, rather relying on OpenStack Cinder as an intermediary, which seems silly for a pure Virtualisation setup (ie not a multi-tenanted private cloud). Perhaps, being from RedHat, you could suggest the closest community versions of oVirt and Gluster to your commercial equivalents of RHEV/RHSS? Thanks Alex On 28/07/15 08:26, Raz Tamir wrote:

Hi All,
What information is available regarding the compatibility of Ovirt and Gluster? Is there a combination known to be stable and if so, what are the relevant versions? I am asking with respect to a production system, not an experimental lab environment.
regards, John
