RHBA-2016:0033 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated ovirt-optimizer packages that fix a bug are now available.

Description

The Optimizer is a load balancing service that analyzes the memory usage of
hosts in a particular cluster, and provides a suggested set of virtual machine
migrations that will enable optimal virtual machine deployment across hosts.
This is useful in situations where a virtual machine cannot be started due to
insufficient resources. The Optimizer calculates a load balancing solution every
30 seconds, which is displayed in a sub-tab for each cluster. To avoid conflicts
caused by sharing memory and CPU, the Optimizer is hosted on a machine that is
from the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager. The Optimizer communicates
with the Manager through the Manager's REST API.

Changes to the ovirt-optimizer component:

• This update resolves an issue with the optimizer whereby the optimizer would

connect to the Manager using the REST API every thirty seconds, generating an
unnecessary log message stating that the internal administrative user had logged
in and then logged out of the Manager. (BZ#1290467)
