RHBA-2014:0083 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

A new ovirt-hosted-engine-setup package is now available.

Description

The ovirt-hosted-engine-setup package provides a self-hosted engine tool for Red
Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager. A self-hosted engine is a virtualized
environment in which the Manager runs on a virtual machine on the hosts managed
by the Manager. The self-hosted engine currently only runs on Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6.5 hosts.

To install the self-hosted engine, run:
# yum install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup

Refer to the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.3 Installation Guide for
further information.

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.3/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#chap-Self-Hosted_Engine

All Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager users should install this
update which includes this enhancement.

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
