Is oVirt going to be released and supported for Oracle Linux 8?
If yes, what is ETA?
If no, has it officially been deprecated?

If you want Oracle support for Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager, you need to remain on OL7 and our release. Keep in mind that with UEK6, the kernel and KVM functionality is far improved over the equivalent CentOS or RHEL version.
If you install oVirt 4.4 from upstream, you are not eligible for support from Oracle for oVirt. We will continue to support your Oracle Linux instances (both KVM hosts and guests), though.

Thank you for the update.
What does Oracle recommend? Stay on EL7 using oVirt 4.3?
Will Oracle support if oVirt 4.4 is used from https://www.ovirt.org/download/ ?
