oVirt 3.3.2 release
by Sandro Bonazzola 19 Dec '13

19 Dec '13

The oVirt development team is very happy to announce the general availability of oVirt 3.3.2 as of December 19th 2013. This release solidifies oVirt as a leading KVM management application and open source alternative to VMware vSphere. oVirt is available now for Fedora 19 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 (or similar). This release of oVirt includes 175 bug fixes and the first release of the Backup and Restore API, which enables backup programs to integrate with oVirt. This release also simplifies the Guide Me VM-creation wizard. See the release notes [1] for a list of the new features and bugs fixed. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you're upgrading from a previous version, please update ovirt-release to the latest version (10) and verify you have the correct repositories enabled by running the following commands # yum update ovirt-release # yum repolist enabled before upgrading with the usual procedure. You should see the ovirt-3.3.2 and ovirt-stable repositories listed in the output of the repolist command. [1] http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_3.3.2_release_notes -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology.
