RHBA-2014:0120 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated vdsm packages that fix a bug are now available.

Description

VDSM is a management module that serves as a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization
Manager agent on Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor or Red Hat
Enterprise Linux hosts.

This update fixes the following bug:

• An older version of qemu-kvm-rhev in the dependencies of vdsm caused

deployment of ovirt-hosted-engine-setup to fail when calling the following
command "sudo -u vdsm -g kvm qemu-img info --output json /path/to/file". With
this update, vdsm requires a newer version of qemu-kvm-rhev, so now qemu-img can
be used when deploying the hosted engine. (BZ#1055514)

All users managing Red Hat Enterprise Linux Virtualization hosts using Red Hat
Enterprise Virtualization Manager are advised to install these updated packages,
which fixes this issue.

These updated packages will be provided to users of Red Hat Enterprise
Virtualization Hypervisor in the next rhev-hypervisor6 errata package.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
