Synopsis

Red Hat Virtualization Manager (ovirt-engine) 4.1.7

Type/Severity

Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

An update is now available for Red Hat Virtualization Manager.

Description

The Red Hat Virtualization Manager is 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 Manager is a JBoss Application Server application that provides several interfaces for accessing and interacting with the virtual environment, including an Administration Portal, a User Portal, and a Representational State Transfer (REST) Application Programming Interface (API).

Changes to the ovirt-engine component:

• This update fixes a Manager issue that allowed duplicate MAC addresses even when duplicates are disallowed. (BZ#1485688)
• The precision of rx_rate, tx_rate, rx_drop, and tx_drop of virtual and host network interfaces have been increased. Network traffic 100 times smaller can now be detected on network interface statistics.

If traffic on the network interface is below the precision of the network interface statistics, it is not reflected in the statistics. (BZ#1502510)
