Hey all,
I suspect we are not alone in finding the world of on premises virtualization has gotten... interesting... in the past few years. Some customers have expressed interest in the open source oVirt project, or Oracle's version, Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager (OLVM) and getting visibility for these environments in DII similar to how our Vmware, Hyper-V, etc collectors work.
We have an active effort in flight to enhance our existing Red Hat Virtualization collector - this is the project that Red Hat open-sourced and became oVirt and then OLVM = all 3 of these expose basically the same REST API. We have already added Oauth authentication support, and are working on further enhancements.
If you are evaluating oVirt or OLVM and are a DII user, you can actually get started with pointing a Red Hat RHV collector at those environments - we do intend to add another OLVM "tile" for this collector, but that is effectively a cosmetic aspect, as the RHV collector-type will have the same functionality.
Feel free to reach out to me at ostiguy at netapp dot com if you have any questions or would like to know more
Thanks,
Matt
