Hi Folks,
I'm setting up a small virtualization system that will start with one
or two hosts and then probably grow to 4-5 hosts. We will eventually be
using a shared iSCSI datastore, but right now I'll probably just use
NFS4. I'm wondering if I should stick with my plan of using oVirt
3.6.2, or should I start of with 3.5 and upgrade at a later date. Is
3.6 generally stable enough for production use? We're not doing
anything very complicated, just running a few Linux webserver VMs. No
high availability or auto-deployment type stuff.

By all means, use oVirt 3.6. It works great and is recommended for
production use. I highly recommend you deploy it on RHEL/CentOS 7.2,
for best results.

+2 to both points:
- There are no plans to fix issues in 3.5.x - only in 3.6.x releases
- 7.2 hosts are preferred as some features are only available there.
Y.

Charles,
If you like thin provisioning, I'd not recommend to move NFS->iSCSI. Thin
provisioned disks become Preallocated during migration from a file to block storage.
