RHEA-2019:1059 - Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

Updated cockpit-ovirt packages that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are now available.

Description

Cockpit is a Linux system administration tool with a web UI, easy setup, and minimal system footprint at runtime. When installed on hosts in Red Hat Virtualization, it provides monitoring and management functions beyond those available in the Administration Portal. Cockpit is installed by default on Red Hat Virtualization Host (RHVH).

Changes to the cockpit-ovirt component:

• Previously, when deploying the Self-Hosted Engine from the Cockpit, an error message appeared together with an explanation that ping issues were encountered. However, under certain conditions the explanation would disappear, leaving only a generic error message "Please correct errors before moving to the next step."

In this release, if ping errors are encountered during deployment, the user will be informed of the issue, and the message will remain in the error window until the issue is resolved. (BZ#1637765)

• Previously, the Self-Hosted Engine pane in Cockpit contained a few minor typos. The current release fixes these issues. (BZ#1676426)
