Well, if I can put my $0.02 worth in...

What I've been trying to do is set up an oVirt cluster (v4.5.X) to use a Ceph 
(Quincey) cluster as the back-end via iSCSI. One thing I found was that 
up-to-date, relevant information from both the Ceph-side *and* the oVirt side 
on how to do this was... hard to find, not explained very well, and often out 
of date (like this relevant Blog post, if it is now out of date, and based on 
the posts of this thread that is what it appears to be) - this also applies to 
pre-installing / not pre-installing OpenVSwitch (see my other thread from 
today).

So I've been experimenting in a test environment (using Rocky Linux - initially 
v9 but now v8.6), tearing down and re-building (physical) boxes, and making 
notes for myself as I go. And, as may be implied from this and my other thread 
from today, the types of problems and issues I'm encountering are relatively 
trivial and easily answered **once I can get on to someone who knows** (those 
issues that aren't "self-inflicted", of course).

And for what it is worth, I am extremely grateful for the help I've received 
today - thank you all!

So if people are talking about doco, etc, then this might be worth considering 
as well (ie, how to go about doing what I've been doing).

I'm reluctant to write this up myself for a number of reasons, including (but 
not limited to) the issue of maintainability, the fact that I'm not experienced 
enough with oVirt to hold myself out as an "expert", and because of an incident 
in the past where I ended up taking a lot of flack that wasn't really my fault 
(the old "once bitten, twice shy").
