Since native Gluster support was removed in qemu and libvirt, oVirt will not be able to support it in 9. well, ok, thank you. so, we need to move to somewhere else after end of 8 :-) fuse is not an option...

That was one of the most useful & practical bits - having libvirt&qemu to make use of GlusterFS without having to "expose" GF volumes to the filesystem.

I'm sure next RHEV will be based on 9 :-)

The document you're looking for is https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9-beta/html-single/considerations_in_adopting_rhel_9/index and the part specific to virtualization is https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9-beta/html-single/considerations_in_adopting_rhel_9/index#ref_changes-to-virtualization_assembly_virtualization The removal of SPICE is mentioned, but that of glusterfs isn't. If you look at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9-beta/html-single/considerations_in_adopting_rhel_9/index#removed-packages_assembly_changes-to-packages you'll see that the qemu-kvm-block-gluster and libvirt-daemon-driver-storage-gluster packages have been dropped, but it's questionable whether this is prominent enough for people to actually notice. -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization

I would ultimately expect this kind of thing to be documented in the release notes, under some kind of heading like "incompatible changes" or similar. We're only at 9.0-beta though, so docs are not all fully fleshed out yet.

Correct, the in-QEMU glusterfs client has been removed from builds of the qemu-kvm RPM in CentOS-9 / RHEL-9. If storing VM disk on gluster you will have to resort to using the in-kernel glusterfs client to mount the disks locally, whereupon QEMU can access them as plain files Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o-https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o-https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org-o-https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
