I could deploy CentOS 6.3 without any problem, host became UP.
Since there is no EL6.4 repo available at moment, I have created few RPM 
updated packages required by VDSM:

http://dougsland.fedorapeople.org/oVirt3.2-EL6/

Additionally is required EPEL + oVirt Nightly repo.

[ovirt-nightly]
name=Nightly builds of the oVirt project
baseurl=http://ovirt.org/releases/nightly/rpm/EL/$releasever/
enabled=1
skip_if_unavailable=1
gpgcheck=0





- Federico reports that udev is going to revert to its Fedora 18alpha
   behavior so that we can keep our integration with it. I'd love to see
   the udev BZ listed in our tracker
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=881006&hide_resolved=1
   as I do not recall it. Federico, could you add it? We should probably
   require a newer udev release.

- Federico reports that we must take a short-but-important patch from Lee
   Yarwood: http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/11281/

Cross-distro:
- Adam: a guy from IBM is now listing issues that block running Vdsm on
   Ubuntu.  Yay!
- Saggi suggests that IBM contribute an Ubuntu slave for Jenkins, so
   that each and every patch is tested not to introduce Ubuntu
   regressions - just as Red Hat has recently done with EL6.
- Danken: yes, we have got el6-based unit-testing running. If you are still
   getting an unjustified X, you may need to rebase on current master.
- Federico: NetworkManager 9 has bridge support, which leads the way to
   NM-based implementation of Vdsm's configNetwork.
- Danken: Toni is working on a suggestion for refactoring configNetwork
   in such a way that multiple implementations (e.g. ifcfg-based,
   NM-based) can coexist.  Stay stuned for his Wiki page on the subject.

Other refactoring going on:
- Vinzenz has begun breaking the horrible libvirtvm+vm to edible-size
   pieces. Reviews are most welcome, particularly from Mark Wu, whose
   http://gerrit.ovirt.org/10054/ only awaits verification tick.

Functional Testing:
- Adam: a guy from IBM (Zhou, I presume) is running the functional tests
   via Jenkins on his laptop. Yay!
- Adam: plans to add a functional test for the getVdsCaps verb, as he
   found out that an evil Vdsm developer has added values to the caps
   without updating the schema.

- P.S. FlowID is now in for storage verbs as well (thanks, Douglas). I
   hope Haim is happier now.

Happy coding!

I've found it and posted http://gerrit.ovirt.org/11489 to require the
systemd version that fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/903716.

That's horrible.  It looks like that Qemu 1.3 and libvirt 1.0.0 already 
supports the "live block commit" which is the base of live commit.  Do 
we have plan to support "live commit" in next oVirt release?
