 Subject: [ovirt-users] Where do you run oVirt? Here are the answers!
 
 Hi,
 This is a summary of the 85 response we got to the last month poll. Thanks
 everyone who answered!
 
 Which distribution are you using for running ovirt-engine?
 Fedora 20 8   9%
 CentOS 6  52  61%
 CentOS 7  22  26%
 Other 3   4%
 
 Which distribution are you using for your nodes?
 Fedora 20 6   7%
 CentOS 6  40  47%
 CentOS 7  31  36%
 oVirt Node6   7%
 Other 2   2%
 
 In Other: RHEL 6.6, 7.0, 7.1 and a mixed environment of CentOS 6 and 7.
 
 Do you use Hosted Engine?
 Yes   42  49%
 No42  49%
 
 
 Would you like to share more info on your datacenter, vms,...? Tell us about
 it

 oVirt is so AWESOME! I luv it.

 We currently run engine on CentOS 6 as CentOS 7 was not yet supported. We
 plan on migrating it to a CentOS 7 machine.
 Our nodes are currently CentOS 6 but are planning to migrate to CentOS 7.
 (For the nodes a checkbox for each distribution would be better than the
 radiobutton, as you can have multiple clusters with different
 distributions).

 3 separate virtual RHEV datacenters, test, dev, prod.
 Use direct attach fibre channel luns for application storage heavily on VMs
 to take advantage of snapshot/restore features on our array.
 Hosted Engine in test and dev. Physical manager in prod.

 All 3 nodes connected via 10Gb ethernet
 Between 9 en 15 VM's depending on my tests
 Always active
 - Zimbra

 Develop/test

 - 4 nodes for KVM, 4 nodes for GlusterFS.
 - 1Gigabit for management and 4Gigabit channel bonding for GlusterFS replica.
 - Master Storage Domain lives on replica-3 GlustrerFS volume.
 
 --
 30 hvs NFS storage over infiniband, custom portal for task automation and
 classroom abstraction via API
 
 --
 We use atm local storage.
 Current running vm count is over 100.
 I'd like to use EL7 platform in the future, but I'm uncertain how to best
 upgrade everything with a minimal downtime.
 we currently run ovirt-engine 3.3.3
 we will stick with EL platform and not switch to fedora based, because
 we need the improved stability.
 we also do not upgrade to dot zero releases as these introduced
 some breakage in the past (regressions).
 I hope this gets better with future releases.
 Keep up the good work!

 I think that we really need more troubleshooting tools and guides more than
 anything.  There are various logs, but there is no reason why we
 shouldn't be publishing some of this information to the engine UI and even
 automating certain self-healing.
 The absolute most important feature in my mind is getting the ability to auto
 start (restart) VMs after certain failures and attempting to unlock
 disks, etc..  VMware does a tremendous amount of that in order to provide
 better HA.  We need this.

 Have FC only. Using SVC. Behind it now DS4700. Going to have other storages

 This is BYOD.

 I could imagine that some people would not like to share
 some information when it get's public.

Well, I agree, some people would not like to share info to public.
That's why the form is anonymous and basically asks only about the OS and if 
hosted engine is used allowing people to share more info about it.
The collected results are included automatically in a spreadsheet by google 
forms app.
The objective of the survey is to help devel to understand what's better to 
focus on, mostly for integration team having to deal with CentOS and
Fedora (and experimental Gentoo and upcoming Debian).
Intention is to share the result of the survey on devel mailing list. So the 
same license (public domain?) of the mailing list will be used.

I'll leave the survey open until next week sync meeting, let me know if any 
record should be deleted.
For what I can see only your record has a name within it :-)
