They are, and will be, supported, but it's lagging a bit behind Stream. The 
exact lag depends on how far are we from the next minor version. 4.4.9 will 
work on 8.5, there will be RHEL 8.5 and RHEL clones 8.5 soon, but there's not 
going to be CentOS 8.5, considering there's <2 months until CentOS EOL.
So..for oVirt 4.4.9 you can say it's supported only on Stream. And It will be 
supported very soon on RHEL/clone.

That said it will be probably a bit shaky once Stream 9 gets more traction. We 
will try to move to it whenever it starts working. And for that time until RHEL 
9 releases there might be again some issues with RHELs. 

Thanks,
michal

I just did this for 4.3.10 -> 4.4.x.
For now (only going to last a few months) the upgrade path is:
- standalone engine:  pivot to a CentOS 8.4 VM - backup and restore method;
decommission EL7 engine
- standalone engine: before upgrading your hosts set firewall management
method to "firewalld". If you do not
  do this you will not see any network interfaces at your hosts ("Setup
Host Networks" page)
- hosts: pivot to CentOS Stream 8 - nuke-n-pave your existing hosts in a
rolling upgrade method

For engine, if you choose to use a EL8-rebuild (OL8, Rocky Linux 8,
AlmaLinux 8) you will need to
set OTOPI_DNF_ENABLE=1 if engine-setup fails with a miniyum error (this
means that it failed to detect
a dnf-capable system).

Hi,
qemu/libvirt packages are now being pushed to Stream, CentOS is supposedly EOL 
in 2 months. Currently there's not much of a difference and if packages are 
installed happily then it likely works just fine, but with the upcoming RHEL 
8.5 release it is unlikely CentOS would be updated to 8.5, so I'm afraid CentOS 
based systems won't last for too long. It would be best to move to Stream 
entirely, or use ovirt-node (as a snapshot of packages that work), or move to 
RHEL or RHEL clones.

Thanks,
michal

[ovirt-users] Re: Issue upgrading VDSM in 4.4.9

2021-10-31 Thread Thomas Simmons
Hello,

I am running into the same issue while attempting a new install of oVirt 4.4 to 
replace my hyperconverged 4.3 cluster. I am running into the issue on one of 
the inital steps (yum/dnf install cockpit-ovirt-dashboard vdsm-gluster 
ovirt-host). After some digging, I found that the version of libvirt that it's 
looking for (libvirt >= 7.6.0-2) is not in the CentOS 8 Advanced Virt repo, but 
is only in the CentOS Stream Advanced Virt repo. 

You can see here that libvirt 7.0.0-14.1 is the latest available in the CentOS 
8 Advanced Virt repo:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8/virt/x86_64/advanced-virtualization/Packages/l/

However, the newer libvirt 7.6.0-2 is available in the 8-stream repo:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8-stream/virt/x86_64/advancedvirt-common/Packages/l/

I don't know if there will be any ramifications down the road (I'm hoping there 
will not be since Stream tracks just behind the next EL point release), however 
I was able to get past the error by adding the 8-stream Advanced Virt repo to 
my systems by creating the repo file below. It would be nice if a developer 
could respond and advise if this is a "safe" solution, or if this is a known 
problem that they expect to address?

Hello,

I get the same issue on m oVirt cluster.

I've been able to upgrade the hosted engin VM, but I cant update my Ovirt self 
hosted nodes from 4.4.8 to 4.4.9.

If I run dnf update, I get the same error.

lingļ¼ aliko.com : Have you been able to resolve this issue ?

Thanks.
