Why not start a thread on users at ovirt.org, then?

You might find this useful/interesting:

Partial quote:

- oVirt Node jumped from 7.1% on 3.6 survey to 19.9% in 4.1!

So most people use CentOS, but some do use ovirt-node,
and now more than in the past.

Both are supported. I'd say node is more for people that prefer
pre-made appliances, while CentOS is for people that want the
most control.

If you consider node, you might want to read e.g.:

https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/
node/node-next-persistence/

Disclaimer: I am an oVirt developer.

Best regards,
