RHEA-2019:1099 - Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

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

Description

[Rebase] Rebase ovirt-guest-agent for RHV 4.3
The guest agent allows the Red Hat Virtualization Manager to receive internal guest events and retrieve information such as the IP address and list of installed applications from the guest. Additionally the guest agent allows the Manager to execute specific commands, such as shut down or reboot, on guest virtual machines.

The Red Hat Virtualization Agent did not report the correct OS version for a Windows2019 guest. In this release, a Windows 2019 guest is reported correctly. (BZ#1656346)
