We have plenty of native Russian speakers on this list ;-)

The short answer is that is that no one wrote a patch to Vdsm to let it
recognize Scientific Linux. You are more than welcome to write such a
patch.

I suspect that you would need a (yet unpublished) SL6.2 in order to have
oVirt work properly. Vdsm requires several packages by version for a
reason.
