oVirt and Oracle Linux support

Hi, I'm new to this ML. I started to play a bit with oVirt and I saw that you actually support RH and CentOS. Is there any plan to also support Oracle Linux ? I had to fight so much to get everything on OL correctly running. Thanks Simon

Hello Simon, you mean OL as guest? I don't think there should be so much problems, because OL is a custom version of RHEL/CentOS. Which kind of problems did you get?

Hi Luca, no, I mean OL as an host, compute-node managed by oVirt. As a guest I hadn't any kind of problem. Thanks Simon On Thu, May 3, 2018 at 11:44 AM, Luca 'remix_tj' Lorenzetto < lorenzetto.luca@gmail.com> wrote:

Which kind of problems? I think there should be not so much if you're using OL 7. I've been using OL7 in the past and we integrated with no issues in the same lifecycles tools we're using for RHEL7 Luca -- "E' assurdo impiegare gli uomini di intelligenza eccellente per fare calcoli che potrebbero essere affidati a chiunque se si usassero delle macchine" Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibnitz, Filosofo e Matematico (1646-1716) "Internet è la più grande biblioteca del mondo.

nope why would you want to use OL? Supposing you do not want to run it together with Oracle server. If you want to pay for OS buy RHEL, at least those $ would be used to improve oVirt;-)

yeah, it’s probably doable if you mix it with centos packages manually probably not worth the effort maintaining it Thanks, michal
Thanks
