Hi I have an existing oVirt host 4.4 running on CentOS 8, and I am in the process of converting the OS to CentOS Stream. I am getting the following errors: ``` # yum update Last metadata expiration check: 0:03:14 ago on Wed 08 Dec 2021 01:05:55 AM CET. Error: Problem 1: package ovirt-host-dependencies-4.4.9-2.el8.x86_64 requires rsyslog-openssl, but none of the providers can be installed - package rsyslog-openssl-8.2102.0-5.el8.x86_64 requires rsyslog = 8.2102.0-5.el8, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both rsyslog-8.2102.0-6.el8.x86_64 and rsyslog-8.2102.0-5.el8.x86_64 - cannot install both rsyslog-8.2102.0-5.el8.x86_64 and rsyslog-8.2102.0-6.el8.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package rsyslog-8.2102.0-5.el8.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package ovirt-host-dependencies-4.4.8-1.el8.x86_64 Problem 2: package ovirt-host-dependencies-4.4.9-2.el8.x86_64 requires rsyslog-openssl, but none of the providers can be installed - package rsyslog-openssl-8.2102.0-5.el8.x86_64 requires rsyslog = 8.2102.0-5.el8, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both rsyslog-8.2102.0-6.el8.x86_64 and rsyslog-8.2102.0-5.el8.x86_64 - cannot install both rsyslog-8.2102.0-5.el8.x86_64 and rsyslog-8.2102.0-6.el8.x86_64 - package rsyslog-elasticsearch-8.2102.0-6.el8.x86_64 requires rsyslog = 8.2102.0-6.el8, but none of the providers can be installed - package ovirt-host-4.4.9-2.el8.x86_64 requires ovirt-host-dependencies = 4.4.9-2.el8, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install the best update candidate for package rsyslog-elasticsearch-8.2102.0-5.el8.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package ovirt-host-4.4.8-1.el8.x86_64 (try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages) ``` Does anyone know how to resolve it? Notice: The oVirt host is also a gluster storage server (hyperconverged). Thanks Toni
CentOS Stream will install qemu 6.1, which will likely cause VMs failing to boot (including hosted-engine) if they use Q35 BIOS. Q35 and i440fx worked, but Q35 BIOS is the default when setting up hosted-engine and the VM failed to start in stage 5 for me. To get packages to update on CentOS Stream, I ran dnf distro-sync --nobest. This will update everything but the rsyslog packages, and downgrade the rsyslog packages to the necessary versions. You may want to consider sticking with CentOS until Rocky or Alma Linux 8.6 are available. When RHEL 8.6 is available, advanced-virtualization should be available for Rocky and Alma Linux once they release their 8.6 versions. This will allow oVirt to be installed on those distros.
Hi Thanks for your answer. All my VM's are already using i440fx (as Chipset/Firmware Type), and the oVirt Engine runs on bare metal. I was wondering if either CentOS Stream or Rocky/Alma would be more stable in the future, in the context of oVirt + Gluster. From you response, I am becoming more biased towards Rocky now.
