rhev-guest-tools-iso bug fix and enhancement update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated Windows Guest Tools packages that fix several bugs and add various
enhancements are now available.

Description

The rhev-guest-tools-iso package contains tools and drivers. These tools and
drivers are required by supported Windows guest operating systems when installed
as guests on Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization.

Changes to the rhev-guest-agent component:

• To avoid an excessively long list of applications in localized Windows
  environments, Windows XP releases are now filtered by release type, allowing
  hotfixes and updates to be excluded. (BZ#1108672)
  

Changes to the Windows Guest Tools component:

• The MSI installer has been modified to include new configuration files, which
  must be installed in addition to the rhev-agent.ini file. (BZ#1111052)
  

Solution

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
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
