Hi, since we have still too many blockers for oVirt 3.5.0 RC2 release, we need to postpone it again to Thu *2014-08-21 08:00 UTC* Due to this delay, the oVirt schedule has changed as follow: - General availability: 2014-09-03 (Wed) - oVirt 3.5 Third Test Day: 2014-08-28 (Thu) - RC2 Build: 2014-08-21 (Thu) Maintainers: - Please be sure that 3.5 snapshot allow to create VMs before *2014-08-20 15:00 UTC* - Please be sure that no pending patches are going to block the release before *2014-08-20 15:00 UTC* - If any patch must block the RC release please raise the issue as soon as possible. The bug tracker [1] shows the following proposed blockers to be reviewed: Bug ID Whiteboard Status Summary 1127877 infra ASSIGNED vdsm-tool configure --force does not configure qemu.conf properly in the first run on a fresh install 1129261 sla NEW prepareImage api call fails with [Errno 2] No such file or directory 1130038 sla NEW prepareImage api call fails with [Errno 2] No such file or directory 1109920 storage POST Live Merge: Extend internal block volumes during merge 1127294 storage POST Live Merge: Resolve unknown merge status in vdsm after host crash 1128776 storage NEW Can't change a vm disk's storage domain from a file domain to a block domain when creating a template...
