Not so long ago openstack-nova started to require qemu-kvm-rhev instead

This made it impossible to install on Virtuozzo, which used to work well
before the change.

I think Virtuozzo is based on CentOS.

I skimmed through the related tickets

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1367696
https://review.rdoproject.org/r/1900
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1392820
https://review.rdoproject.org/r/9858

but failed to understand the motivation behind this change.  What are
those particular features that are only present in qemu-kvm-rhev and
make the vendor-neutral requirement insufficient?  So far we didn't
notice any issues running recent enough QEMU with Nova, but I guess this
must have changed.

Dan has already responded.  In short, 'qemu-kvm-rhev' is the recommended
RPM for Red Hat OSP.

FYI, a related change that will get shortly pushed to RDO Nova spec (and
to "Queens" branch too):

     https://review.rdoproject.org/r/#/c/13277/ -- Bump the minimum
     version of 'qemu-kvm-rhev' & libvirt

I'm now trying to figure out what is needed to make our QEMU package
work with Nova; any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Roman.


Maybe the missing information is that qemu-kvm-ev is provided by the CentOS Virt SIG => https://cbs.centos.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=539

If you use the release packages provided by RDO or CentOS extras, repositories are correctly setup to retrieve it.
