It might also be they don't have permission to create the kubevirt api objects on the CentOS CI cluster. If they are actively interested in this, we can sync up and figure out exactly what permissions are required to make use of it!

However, not all nodes are equally resourced, we have 2 large nodes and 1 much smaller, therefore, more replicas will be spread over these 2 larger nodes. We can likely afford to lose one of the large physical nodes while still maintaining data integrity.

We should sync to get a better handle on the requirements for backups. In CentOS CI we've set up backups to S3, we can certainly use some of that, eg: backup of etcd, but may need further investigation to backup the volumes managed by OCS. Will need to do some research here.

If we are doing more than 1 at the same time, we should do a full graceful cluster shutdown, and then a graceful cluster startup. We have SOPs for this in CentOS CI also, we'll get those added here and any content updates made.

We have several tenants which have elevated permissions, and are then accessing KVM directly to bring up VMs on the Openshift nodes, this is something we want to avoid, as we can't effectively set quotas on this type of usage.

I believe the Hyperscale SIG is using it. Or if they're not, it's
because they don't know it's there.
