Centos stream uses the "rolling release" model, which means that it is not versioned (there will be no CentOS stream 8,9,10,etc). This is an absolute nightmare to manage if you are trying to run a large scale homogenous fleet of systems, and makes it completely unsuitable for this task. Given that this is the ceph-users mailing list, my guess is that most people here run large numbers of homogenous machines that run a Ceph cluster. Centos Stream is a horrible choice of platform to do this. When people talk about a distribution's stability, they are usually not talking about "does it crash a lot"; they are talking about the frequency of change. CentOS Stream is essentially the definition of "unstable". To answer OP's question, a bunch of choices are outlined here <https://itsfoss.com/rhel-based-server-distributions/>. I have no personal experience with any of these, but I would probably check out Rocky Linux <https://rockylinux.org/> first since it was created by one of the original CentOS developers > On Wed, Mar 3, 2021 at 5:39 PM Radoslav Milanov < > radoslav.milanov@xxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > > +1 > > > > On 3.3.2021 г. 11:37 ч., Marc wrote: > > >>> Secondly, are we expecting IBM to "kill off" Ceph as well? > > >>> > > >> Stop spreading rumors! really! one can take it further and say kill > > >> product > > >> x, y, z until none exist! > > >> > > > This natural / logical thinking, the only one to blame here is > > IBM/redhat.
