Some notes that may help the users based on the replies on the survey (based on latest 4.2): - ISO upload to storage domain is supported (UI/API). Can be used just like disk upload and it supports quota based on the disk used. - You now have partial incremental backup support with download/upload API (at long as the snapshot still exists): https://ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/backup-restore... - You can now download/upload VMs from data storage domains. - VM not keep their compatibility version after cluster version upgrade, so it is ok to not restart in upgrade (at least until CentOS 8). - Ceph can be used with ISCSI target with oVirt. - macspoofing hook is not really needed in oVirt 4.x, this is a supported feature that can be used in vNIC profiles. - Some of the users change migration settings in VDSM. This is not really needed with oVirt 4.2 and migration policies which less error prone and more advanced. Hope this helps some of you. Thanks!

Correction:
- VM keep their compatibility version after cluster version upgrade, so it is ok to not restart in upgrade (at least until CentOS 8).
- Ceph can be used with ISCSI target with oVirt.
