RHV/oVirt and Ansible Tower/awx

Hey all We've recently moved from RHV v4.3 to RHV v4.4SP1 (ovirt v4.5) and I'm wanting to rebuild one of our application "clusters" (not HA, simply a group of related nodes that run the application stack) Ansible Tower is v3.8.5 and is running on RHEL7. To further complicate matters, we've just gone from Arcserve UDP to Veeam and Veeam for RHV. As I need to ensure the new VMs are built with COW disks with backup "incremental" enabled. After a lot of mucking about I find I have to fully qualify the Ansible module names (i.e. ovirt_diskl becomes ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_disk) but this has uncovered the next problem. The workflow on Ansible Tower server is failing with "ovirtsdk4 version 4.4.0 or higher is required for this module". So how can I wedge the v4.4 ovirt SDK onto this RHEL7 Ansible Tower node? Thanks

Possibly latest sdk4 for EL7 is here: https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.3/rpm/el7Server/x86_64/python-ovirt-... But it has been released mid 2020 and for 4.3. I think it should work in terms of API but perhaps it is missing some latest functionality Not tried against 4.4 or 4.5 Gianluca

Hi I'm looking at whats involved in upgrading our Ansible Tower setup (external database plus isolated node) to RHEL8. Pretty sure what I want has to have v4.4 or above SDK. Thanks On Fri, 12 Aug 2022 at 14:52, Gianluca Cecchi <gianluca.cecchi@gmail.com> wrote:
