Well yes, I thought of that. But my reasoning was that if I only upgrade
these specific packages, there is less difference and less potential for
issues. On the other hand, CentOS 7 is mostly based on Fedora 19, so it
could work...guess I can only find out by trying.

Well if you are desperate enough to try
such an unknown third party repo
you might as well try the freshly released

Hello,
I'm trying to setup a new oVirt environment based on F19 hosts, but
I'm
running into so many issues, that I'm thinking of switching 'back' to
CentOS. However I would lose the advanced features (libgfapi, live
snapshots etc.) that are enabled in the F19 libvirt/qemu/kvm packages.
So after some googling a came across Alexandar Evseev's repository
with
all the newest virtualization rpms packaged for CentOS 6:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/aevseev/CentOS6/x86_64/
However, I can't find any information at all about the status of these
packages or any indication about stability. Is anyone familiar with
this
repository and would it be possible to use these packages in an oVirt
environment?
libgfapi is not enabled in vdsm until libvirt has proper support for
snapshots.
for the other 'advanved features', you can use the .el6 rpm built in
jenkins.ovirt.org
All right, that's useful information. Maybe I didn't get my terminology
right: I want to host my VM-images on a GlusterFS volume, on a separate
storage cluster. Will it be possible to create a GlusterFS storage
domain on a CentOS cluster that utilizes that? Or should I use the posix
storage domain and specify glusterfs as a type? Is there any difference
in performance, since libgfapi isn't enabled anyway?
gluster storage domain can be used with any recent .el6 version iirc, it
doesn't use libgfapi (yet).
using the gluster storage domain means you'll get libgfapi automatically
at upgrade when its enabled back again
