Switching to ovirt, is it worth it?

Question

Proxmox

Good afternoon, at the moment we are using ProxMox version 3, in parallel we are testing the 4th branch, but so far everything is not going smoothly for production. the thought of switching to ovirt crept in .....
Share your thought ...
Thank you!

Answer 1

lxc is shit and an unfinished craft
if you think it’s interesting, that is, there is a chance to migrate to docker
In general, a new openvz aka virtuozzo7 will
be released this year on the same proxmox but switch to kvm than go to ovirt to sit on the same kvm

Answer 2

It would be a little specific, what exactly the installation does, what features are needed for full-fledged work, then it will be possible to advise. and so it turns out "I drive a Zhiguli to work, at the same time I test the fret, is it worth switching to Toyota?"

Answer 3

Considering that there is not a single review on oVirt on Habré, I will write here, maybe it will come in handy for someone. Delve into bugs, etc. I won’t have it difficult, but they manage or are solved, so I will describe the biggest minus of this system from my point of view.
In one data center, you cannot use local disks and network storages, for which (NAS) oVirt is, as it were, imprisoned. Deceiving him by connecting local drives via NFS is also not an option, because. it will not work to map the disk only to the host host. There can only be one SPM. Therefore, all traffic will run through some one host hub.
If you cut local disks, then another drawback comes out. All hosts fight on separate data centers. Cons... you can't cut a shared Data NFS at all (well, as it turned out, this is not the biggest problem yet). And you can not connect a common Export domain. Those. it will not turn out to make backups on one disk at least and at most a bunch of other problems. The only thing that the developers condescended to is allowed to connect a common ISO domain for distributions.
Otherwise, an excellent system that is very well documented. Tested on oVirt 4.1+
PS If it is possible to refuse to use local disks, then the system is very good.
