Is there a target release (or at least beta) date for the next major oVirt release, presumably 4.6 ??? Will it support Rocky Linux 10 nodes? What platform will the hosted-engine be built upon? Just planning ahead for our future redeployment. Thanks for any insight you can give.
Hi, We are working on a few bits/bugs that need to be fixed, before we can push out the next release. This will be 4.5.8. I hope we can push it out in October, just want all known issues smashed before release :) The hosted engine will be the same like we have now already. That is: - CentOS 9 & 10 - AlmaLinux 9 & 10 No huge changes since 4.5.7, just quite some bugfixes etc. After that, we will most likely get started with 4.6.0, which will include a major upgrade of the oVirt base. That is a new Wildfly, Javax to Jakarta migration etc. Thanks Jean-Louis On 26/09/2026 17:34, Diggy Mc wrote:

An important feature would be to allow the migration of virtual machines between different data centers.
Wow, Great to see this And It would be nice to also have live (or cold) migration of VMs between different managers (engines), not only between data centers under the same engine. I opened an RFE for related this: https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/issues/1221
Ahem, I meant to ask about the SELF-hosted engine. What distro/version will it be? I don't like CentOS because of the short EOL cycle. j/s
Oh, and is there a move towards CephFS since oVirt appears to be abandoning GlusterFS?
Great News! The more I test OKD virtualisation, the more I love oVirt! Why virtualization should be so complicated while oVirt is all what to be expected for this kind of workload? Le lundi 28 septembre 2026 à 08:44 +0200, Jean-Louis Dupond via Users a écrit :
