Hey,
oVirt Node 3.0.1 has been released [0] and can be downloaded [1].
3.0.1 is the first bug fix release after the major 3.0.0 release.
You might notice that there was no release email for the 3.0.0 release,
so let us shed some light on that release.
What changed?
ovirt-node-3.0.0 was a major release which brought some major changes.
One important change is, that Node is now an "universal image" [2]. The
base Node images (for Fedora 19 and EL6) do _not_ contain any specific
VDSM bits anymore and can _not_ be used directly with oVirt Engine.
The VDSM specific parts got extracted and can be found in the
ovirt-node-plugin-vdsm [3][4].
For convenience we plan to provide additional images containing the VDSM
plugin which will make the images ready to use with oVirt Engine.
For this release we need to delay the release of the VDSM images due to
some last-minute bugs.
There are also many more new features in 3.0 [0][5]:
* Universal Image - Remove VDSM specific bits to make the image more
general (an VDSM image is still provided)
* Improved upgrade tool
* Software iSCSI root
* Puppet configuration management (plugin)
* Bridegeless Networking
* NIC Bonds
* New installer TUI
* IPv6 support in the setup TUI
* Diagnostics page in the setup TUI
* Images for Fedora 19 and EL6
Let us know [6][7] if you found an issue, miss something which should be
part of Node or would like to use Node in your project.
Thanks
The oVirt Node Team

Final RC builds have been posted to the beta repos on ovirt.org. The
current scheduled release for 3.3 is set for Monday assuming no critical
blocker issues are found before then.
If you picked up beta packages prior to Thursday at approximately 11 AM
EDT (15:00 UTC), there is a new ovirt-engine package that fixes a single
security issue [1][2].

Hi all,
An update to our beta release from early last week is now available
What changed?
The features of this release can be found here [0].
Note that vdsm was dropped from Node to make the image more generic.
That means this image is not able to register with oVirt Engine.
Plugins like the vdsm, cim or snmp plugin can be addded to the beta
ISO using the edit-node tool (part of the ovirt-node-tools package).
What can I test?
You can focus on hardware support, package integration, the
installation (all paths) and the TUI.
What can I do if I find/miss something?
Just reaches us on this mailinglist, on irc [3] or open a bug [4].
Changes since the previous build:
* Fix a corruption in NFSv4 configuration
* Fix cpu topology reporting for some newer processors
* enhancements in the upgrade code
* Fix log file visibility
* add the keyboard selection page on upgrade
* Add IPv6 configuration to the TUI
Also available (but still pre-beta, since it's tied to the oVirt release
schedule, not the oVirt Node schedule) is the vdsm plugin for ovirt
node. This packages can be found here[2]. An iso with this plugin
pre-installed is also available[5].
A edit-node.repo file has also been posted for convenience[6] for those
of you wishing to make use of the plugins that are not included by
default, but available at [2].
These can be installed by using the following command:
# sudo edit-node --repo=edit-node.repo --install=<package-name> <base-iso>
Sincerely yours
The oVirt Node Team
