About cluster level 4.5 and oVirt 4.4.3 release notes

Hi, it has been raised today on #ovirt channel that there's no mention of the 4.5 cluster level new features and about its requirements on RHEL 8.3 in release notes at https://ovirt.org/release/4.4.3/ Can you please send an update to the oVirt website adding the missing information?

I thought that all RFEs with Doc Type set to Release Note are automatically added to release notes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1877675 Any idea why the above RFE is not mentioned?

I see that bug has referenced 2 patches but those 2 patches were not referencing the BZ so it has not been included in release notes generation. Release notes are generated from doc text in bugs referenced by git commits. I'll add doctext from that bug to notes.

Please review / merge https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-site/pull/2394 Note that doc-text still doesn't explain what to expect from that cluster level

Ah, so that's why it was missed in release notes. This is quite important information, because I though we are going over targeted bugs only when generating release notes ... I'll add doctext from that bug to notes.
Please review / merge https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-site/pull/2394 Note that doc-text still doesn't explain what to expect from that cluster level
Yes, because for each feature we have separate RFE, which should depend on BZ1877675. So currently there should be below features which require DC/CL 4.5: *1745024* <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1745024> - [RFE] Enabling Icelake new NIs - RHV *1725166* <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1725166> - [RFE] Private VLAN / port isolation But AFAIR there were more features which require 4.5 ...

*1745024* <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1745024> - [RFE] Enabling Icelake new NIs - RHV
This one is a private bug and has no documentation bug associated. The feature is not documented in RHEL 8.3 release notes as well as far as I can tell.
*1725166* <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1725166> - [RFE] Private VLAN / port isolation
This one is included in release notes but it has no documentation content so it's hard to tell it's enabled by cluster level 4.5
But AFAIR there were more features which require 4.5 ...
We should do a better work documenting new features :-/ -- Sandro Bonazzola MANAGER, SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, EMEA R&D RHV Red Hat EMEA <https://www.redhat.com/> sbonazzo@redhat.com <https://www.redhat.com/> *Red Hat respects your work life balance.
