The ovirt-node-ng-installer iso imbased installs will have the dependency issues worked out when they move it to CentOS8 Stream. Its the simplest way to go. Its going to be tested as a whole before you touch it. It version locks a lot of things, but some packages can be added afterwards with something like 'yum --enablerepo baseos --enablerepo appstream install packagename', and you can run most other things you wanted on a VM anyway. The largest issue I see with complex systems like oVirt and openstack being installed 'by hand' on base CentOS is all the inter-dependencies between separate open source projects. Occasionally someone thinks its a good idea to update a package somewhere like in EPEL, or elsewhere in the project's dependency tree and it breaks some previously working assumptions so the software you wanted now fails to install or work correctly as it was tested under different circumstances at a different time.

Hi All,

I've been testing with a single server "cluster" running oVirt w/Gluster and am about to build my in house cluster using three Dell servers. I was planing on putting CentOS 8 on these servers and building oVirt on top. With the recent changes to CentOS changing to CentOS Stream, I have concerns.

I'm tempted to build my cluster with CentOS 8 (as this is what I tested on) and assume that there will be some official word from oVirt as to how to proceed come end of year. Any suggestions from folks here? Any one know if there is anything out from oVirt crew already around this?

Cheers, Gervais
