Fedora 25 Workstation | Server | Korora 25: what say you, ML'ers...
-
Having converted (no dual boot here) my MBP to Korora (it's been less than 24 hours)
I must say, I like what I've seen so far.Since the ML community seems to be growing more comfortable with the F25 family tree...
Why aren't/won't most of you use Fedora 25 for your virtualization projects?
It is certainly capable & I assume it would make life simpler/easier?
Yes, no.Let's hear some feedback.

We've moved to Korora as our main desktop here and Fedora as our main server. We've converted over half of our workload from CentOS to Fedora and have more to do that are in the works. Not a high priority because CentOS 7 is still rock solid. But uniformity is great when you can do it. We are finding Korora on the desktop to be really great, as well. Before we hit the CentOS switch overs, we have some lingering Ubuntu that we hope Fedora will be able to take over for as well.

I've got a SuperMicro X9DA7 + NVMe water cooled rig I'm building...the only way this guy is getting Win 10...as a vm
Time to switch her up!

Trying to get Korora installed on my old beater laptop (of which has Mint) and it hangs at the Korora gear icon badge.
Attempting the installer with the Gnome version here in a bit.

Fedora 25 Gnome for work laptop and home desktop.
Fedora and CentOS for servers.I might install Fedora on my work PC if Windows 10 end up making me hulk out.

Yeah I'm pretty close to doing that as well. . . gotta confirm that I can get all of the software I need at work.

I'm running Fedora 25 Cinnamon Desktop at work on my laptop and desktop. I had issues with Korora on my laptop (Dell Latitude E6440), which is why I went with Fedora.
I like Korora better, however. I will try it on my work desktop sometime in the near future. But I will dual boot first along side of Fedora just because I can't have that system be down for too long, just incase that one gives issues like my laptop did.
But I really like Korora, it looks and works great... when it works.

I'm addicted to Korora's flat icon choices and the look of their terminal

Is there a Proxmox equivalent in the Fedora world?

What would qualify as a PM equivalent? All of the parts that make up PM are already there. But no project like PM to make a product out of it.

Just like you said, more of a finished/packaged/ready-to-go kinda product.

This might be an option, it seems like a lot of work!

Why, Gluster no goodie?

A bit of a pain and not performing for this kind of workload.

For a free KVM hypervisor that can be managed from a web browser, proxmox is the easiest compare to ovirt. Ovirt is meant to be setup with an engine host and a storage node.

You are probably correct.
It would be nice to have one running off of Fedora instead of Debian.
oVirt seems like a lot of work to setup! -

oVirt seems like a lot of work to setup!Installing ovirt-engine requires answering some questions. And there is a storage node setup ISO that you use to install on a separate hardware.

On my desktop I just enabled KVM and use virt-manager. no actual idea on what exact backend it uses to manage KVM. It is simple and once I added the Spice drivers to my Windows VM everything works great.

I switched to Korora because I wanted Fedora and the Cinnamon desktop.
I like the Fedora/RHEL ecosystem over Debian. I looked at Mint because it uses Cinnamon, but it is so old.
Unlike @scottalanmiller, I will not migrate all the existing CentOS workloads I have out there because the management is manual. If I had a state system setup for all the various client systems it would be different, but I do not.
