1.2.11. Virtualization Host Features

These virtualization host features have been added since the release of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.0:
Increased CPU Support
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization now supports virtualization hosts using:
  • Intel Core i3, i5, and i7 CPUs — code named "Sandy Bridge", and
  • AMD 15h, or Opteron G4, CPUs — code named "Bulldozer".
Common Information Model (CIM) Support
Support has been added for configuring Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisors for use with existing CIM management infrastructure. Once configured add the Hypervisor to your Common Information Model Object Manager (CIMOM). You will then be able to begin monitoring the virtual machines that run on the Hypervisor from the CIMOM.
Automatic Host Recovery
When a host becomes temporarily non-operational Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager will now automatically recover and update the status of the host to Up when it becomes available again.
