I do not expect particular issues; for OL we’re also working to the
pure OL7 to OL8 upgrade process.
BTW, I tested more times the moving from CentOS 7 to OL7 / oVirt to
OLVM on 4.3 release.

We’re now on OLVM 4.3.6+ (
https://blogs.oracle.com/virtualization/announcing-oracle-linux-virtualiz...
) and working on latest maintenance release (on 4.3.10+).
The plan is to then work on OLVM 4.4 with OL8.
Simon,
How can I track the progress ? It seems that I need to migrate in 2
steps :
1) CentOS7/oVIrt 4.3.10 to OEL7 + OLVM 4.3.10
2) At a later stage to OEL8 + OLVM 4.4.+
I know that there is a centos to OEL script for the migration , but as
oVirt (and most probably OLVM) requires some external repos - it will
take some preparation.
Do you think that it's more reasonable to just reinstall one of the
nodes to OEL 8 and then deploy the HE from backup (once 4.4 is
available) ?
Then migrating the rest should be easier.
Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov
