Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this 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 through which the virtual environment can be accessed and interacted with, including an Administration Portal, a User Portal, and a Representational State Transfer (REST) Application Programming Interface (API).
A list of bugs fixed in this update is available in the Technical Notes
