RHBA-2022:0463 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated dependency packages for ovirt-engine and ovirt-host that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are now available.

Description

The ovirt-engine package provides the Red Hat Virtualization Manager, a centralized management platform that allows system administrators to view and manage virtual machines. The Manager provides a comprehensive range of features including search capabilities, resource management, live migrations, and virtual infrastructure provisioning.

The ovirt.ovirt package (previously ovirt-ansible-collection) manages all oVirt Ansible modules.

The ovirt-ansible-hosted-engine-setup package provides an Ansible role for deploying Red Hat Virtualization Hosted-Engine.

otopi is a standalone, plug-in based installation framework to be used to set up system components. The plug-in nature provides simplicity to add new installation functionality without the complexity of the state and transaction management.

Changes to the ovirt-ansible-collection component:

• Previously, multiple stale LUNs had to be removed individually, after removing a storage domain, by calling the 'ovirt_remove_stale_lun' Ansible role multiple times. In the current release, multiple LUN WWIDs for stale links can be included in the 'ovirt_remove_stale_lun' role, which only needs to be called once. (BZ#2012135)
• Previously, when running the 'ovirt_remove_stale_lun' Ansible role, the removal of the multipath device map could fail because of a conflict with a VGS scan. In the current release, the 'ovirt_remove_stale_lun' role for removing multipath is retried six times to allow the removal to succeed. (BZ#2023224)
• The 'manageiq' Ansible role has been deprecated in 'ovirt-ansible-collection-1.6.6' and will be removed in 'ovirt-ansible-collection-2.0.0' (BZ#2017068)
