The Ultimate KVM setup
-
"Ultimate KVM Setup" = "KVM Hypervisor Installation and Configuration for Windows / VMWare Users"?
Not gonna lie, thoughts of virt-manager GUI makes me feel a little dirty.
Why do we need a Fedora box for virt-manager? You should be able to install it on any flavor of linux, including a VM being run on your Hypervisor. As long as you have X-forwarding you can just connect over SSH and initialize it remotely.

cause it makes sense,
And Fedora LXQT OR LXDE are very light. and run well with 1 GB of RAM

Also to piss off MOAR ppl
Centos is the best due stability and boy I love the LTS
And Fedora is just desktop os that evolved into the server area and if there is really smart guys that want to use it as an server os be my guest. Please pave the way with your beta testing and downstream to centos . I have choosen my side.

What packages are you using on CentOS LTS that break on Fedora Server?

If you seriously think that, you are on crack.
There is nothing wrong with choosing CentOS over Fedora, that is simply preference, but Fedora is not now, and never has been "just desktop os"
-
Your reasons for choosing CentOS don't align with your GUI choice.

You have a serious misunderstanding of the Fedora/RHEL/CentOS relationship if you believe this is true.

So they added a couple of things and container support and now people like them as a server os.
If centos dies I will go to Debian. I want OS that is older than me , slow comfortable updates. Thank God I live in third world country where evolution takes centuries , we want centos.

In the above example I use 2 centos with not desktop environment + 1 Fedora with lxqt and I choose lxqt cause it is light

What packages are you using on CentOS LTS that break on Fedora Server?
It is the constant updates and fiddling around, didn't Scott had Fedora issue with storage recently ... I rest my case

Yeah Scott had an issue with inodes.

He could've had the same issue with any distro. inodes aren't specific to Fedora, or even Linux (File ID's in Windows)

I guess you are too young to have lived though this, but RedHat Linux became both RedHat Enterprise Linux and Fedora Project.

That had nothing to do with Fedora. Did you not bother to read the thread?

You have a serious misunderstanding of the Fedora/RHEL/CentOS relationship if you believe this is true.
I won't deny that, it can get confusing.

Not really. Google can tell you.

I got triggered cause there can be only 1 KVM MASTER
It's weird that you're attempting to take the KVM Master role with a GUI install

Why is that any more weird? The CLI is still there to be used, but as far as a tool goes, a GUI is just another one. . .

But i have gut feeling with centos it wouldn't happen. But let us stop with this personal choice even though it is clear what is the good choice and just look and appreciate the ultimate KVM set-up

It's wasted resources. I'd think the KVM Master would be as efficient as possible.
