Re: [ovirt-users] virt-viewer disabling rhel6

You should use a more recent version e.g. to use RHEL 7 as the client to resolve the issue. That said, using engine-config you can change the version check and allow to launch it . You’ll miss some features but it may not really be that important if all you need is to see the screen and cannot update clients to EL7 See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1285883 Thanks, michal Thanks in advance, On Wed, May 31, 2017 at 4:50 PM, cmc <iucounu(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > Hi, > > virt-viewer no longer appears to work when trying to launch a console > with EL 6.8 and oVirt 4.1.
