Hi, As you probably noticed there were no regular releases after oVirt 4.5.4 <https://ovirt.org/release/4.5.4/> in December 2022. Despite the calls to action to the community and to the companies involved with oVirt, there have been no uptake of the leading of the oVirt project yet. The developers at Red Hat still dedicating time to the project are now facing the fact they lack the time to do formal releases despite they keep fixing platform regressions like the recent ones due to the new ansible changes. That makes a nightly snapshot setup a more stable environment than oVirt 4.5.4. For this reason, we would like to suggest the user community to enable nightly repositories for oVirt by following the procedure at: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/dev-process/install-nightly-snapshot.html This will ensure that the latest fixes for the platform regressions will be promptly available.

Hello, Does it replace the ovirt_4_5 repository? - Gilboa On Fri, Apr 14, 2023 at 1:04 PM Sandro Bonazzola <sbonazzo@redhat.com> wrote:

It can replace the ovirt 4.5 repository but there's no conflict keeping both enabled. Il giorno dom 16 apr 2023 alle ore 12:00 Gilboa Davara <gilboad@gmail.com> ha scritto:

If I want to deploy a new cluster (Gluster, self-hosted engine) using nightly, are there any specific instructions or should I simply enable ovirt_4.5 repository, install / enable the nightly copr, continue as usual? - Gilboa

oVirt Node may be a bit more complicated as switching to nightly means you'll have a new node every day. Given the development effort on oVirt Node (not) happening these days I would not encourage using oVirt Node.

Hi, Want to ask. Is it possible to switchback to regular release after upgrading to nightly snapshot ? Assuming formal release will be available later. Thanks before.

Should the nightly oVirt snapshot be installed on the host or on the hosted engine? I'm confused exactly where I need to implement this change in the process.
