14.6.2. Changing the Data Center Compatibility Version

Summary

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization data centers have a compatibility version. The compatibility version indicates the version of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization that the data center is intended to be compatible with. All clusters in the data center must support the desired compatibility level.

Note

To change the data center compatibility version, you must have first updated all the clusters in your data center to a level that supports your desired compatibility level.

  1. Log in to the Administration Portal as the administrative user. By default this is the admin user.
  2. Click the Data Centers tab.
  3. Select the data center to change from the list displayed. If the list of data centers is too long to filter visually then perform a search to locate the desired data center.
  4. Click the Edit button.
  5. Change the Compatibility Version to the desired value.
  6. Click OK.
Result

You have updated the compatibility version of the data center.
