by Sandro Bonazzola 21 Dec '17

21 Dec '17

Hi, now that oVirt 4.2.0 has been released, we're starting to see some reports about issues that for now are related to not so common deployments. We'd also like to get some feedback from those who upgraded to this amazing release without any issue and add these positive feedback under our developers (digital) Christmas tree as a gift for the effort put in this release. Looking forward to your positive reports! Not having positive feedback? Let us know too! We are putting an effort in the next weeks to promptly assist whoever hit troubles during or after the upgrade. Let us know in this users(a)ovirt.org mailing list (preferred) or on IRC using irc.oftc.net server and #ovirt channel. We are also closely monitoring bugzilla.redhat.com for new bugs on oVirt project, so you can report issues there as well.
