As oVirt 4.4.X is using EL8 , you just need to install it with CentOS8 and check if everything goes well. I know that some old hardware was deprecated , but elrepo repository helps alot in such cases.

VMware is prohibitively expensive for a small company like ours and of all the opensource solutions, oVirt looks like the best fit for our needs. Our existing virtual infrastructure is primarily made up of an old vSphere 5 cluster (expired license on old and out of warranty hardware) and a couple of newer standalone (free) ESXi servers. Both the cluster and the standalones have shared NFS storage so I can move VMs around. I want to take a couple of older (2014ish) servers which will serve as the management host and one compute node initially. Then, I'd like to migrate VMs from one vSphere host at a time to the newly created oVirt cluster and convert the now empty vSphere ESXi hosts into oVirt compute nodes as I go. Firstly - Would new compute host hardware (2020) work in a (2014) based ovirt cluster? If so Would I be able to take advantage of the more advanced features of ovirt like live migration etc.. with a mix of new and old hardware Thanks _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/WYTY6PDFQSQXSI...
