I’ve used it recently and it was just a mess. There’s no binary compatibility with the current point release and there’s no version pinning. So it will be really difficult to keep track of things.
I’m really curious how oVirt will handle this.

This is a little concerning.
But it seems pretty easy to convert: https://www.centos.org/centos-stream/
However I would be curious to see if someone tests this with having an active ovirt node!

Did anyone tried to port oVirt to SLES/openSUSE or any Debian-based distro ?

Why not migrate to Oracle Linux ? https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/need-a-stable,-rhel-compatible-alternative-to... They even have a Centos to OL conversion script. cheers Tim On 9/12/20 7:34 am, marcel d'heureuse wrote:

This is what we are planning to do. We made a decision a while ago to start using oracle Linux as we are already an oracle db house. We have centos machines and are slowly ditching Ubuntu and Debian. Moving to OEL is the logical choice.

Also we have begun using OLVM based on tests we conducted with ovirt a while ago. Only issue is olvm is currently stuck on 4.3.6 and waiting for oracle to release updates is a slow process. Personally I would have liked to use ovirt but apparently using oracle is better for the Databases.

The major issue with that is that oVirt 4.3 is out of maintenance, with Python2 EOL being a main reason. CentOS reboots are happening, but will be to little avail, when the oVirt team won't support them. It's a mess that does lots of damage to this project, but IBM might just have different priorities.
