Hi all, we would like to ask about interest in community about oVirt moving to CentOS Stream. There were some requests before but it’s hard to see how many people would really like to see that. With CentOS releases lagging behind RHEL for months it’s interesting to consider moving to CentOS Stream as it is much more up to date and allows us to fix bugs faster, with less workarounds and overhead for maintaining old code. E.g. our current integration tests do not really pass on CentOS 8.1 and we can’t really do much about that other than wait for more up to date packages. It would also bring us closer to make oVirt run smoothly on RHEL as that is also much closer to Stream than it is to outdated CentOS. So..would you like us to support CentOS Stream? We don’t really have capacity to run 3 different platforms, would you still want oVirt to support CentOS Stream if it means “less support” for regular CentOS? There are some concerns about Stream being a bit less stable, do you share those concerns? Thank you for your comments, michal
Hi Michael, Thanks for raising that topic. I personally believe that the CentOS Stream will be something between Fedora and RHEL and thus it won't be as stable as I wish. Yet on the other side , if this speeds up bug fixing - I am OK for that. P.S.: I'm still on 4.3, but I was planing to switch to regular CentOS instead of Stream.

Hi all, there were not that many responses, thank you Strahil for sharing your thoughts, but it’s still quite useful for our CI so we are adding a Stream variant anyway:) Feel free to try it out, it has been added[1] to the ovirt-release-master rpm, you can now install that on top of a CentOS Stream host. Do not use in production Thanks, michal [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1844389

Hi guys, Is supported and save to transition with > 4.4 to Centos Stream, now when "Stream" is the only way to the future? Any knows for certain? regards, L. On 05/06/2020 09:34, Michal Skrivanek wrote:

Stream is not used by all Red Hat teams (yet) , thus it might be a little bit unstable. I would recommend you to wait till the begining of Q2 2021 before you evaluate it. Best Regards, Strahil Nikolov

We moved oVirt Node and oVirt Appliance to CentOS Stream for the next (oVirt 4.4.5) release. Help testing current master and 4.4.5 release candidates will help ensure it's stable for production.

We moved oVirt Node and oVirt Appliance to CentOS Stream for the next (oVirt 4.4.5) release. Help testing current master and 4.4.5 release candidates will help ensure it's stable for production.
Sadly, we had to revert to CentOS Linux 8.3 for 4.4.5, but re-targeting this for 4.4.6 and continuing testing and fixing bugs.

The answer is yes, though I do not see any other option, if I'm not mistaken. We don’t really have capacity to run 3 different platforms, would you still

...this was sent under very different circumstances:) Now it seems to be an easier call... We will be probably moving to Stream a bit more. We did it already, but since there was very little interest it’s not entirely working across automation, CI, release processes. It does depend on all the dependencies we consume so don’t expect it to happen in a month, it’s probably going to take a while To that note, there is also a possibility of oVirt on RHEL which some tried(or even use). It was not very helpful yet because again the dependencies are not really part of the OS and they are not being published in a way that we can consume them. But if this ever changes, it would be a good option for stable underlying OS and up-to-date oVirt….
