If you specifically mean the ovirt-node projects, then yes, it's Fedora
only.  There are other distros where work is being done to make them
clients, but they're not using ovirt-node.

We (the ovirt-node team) would welcome people coming in and helping get
ovirt-node working with other distros, but there has been limited
interest so far.

oVirt Node is a livecd based image that is pretty easy to upgrade.  It's
non-invasive in that you boot the new iso image, and say to upgrade and
it installs the new image without touching the existing configuration or
shared storage.
