[Users] Web UI and new version of SPICE
by Dimitrije Zivkovic 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

Hi, A question about SPICE. I noticed that web UI has some options regarding spice protocol. While updating software tonight, spice was upgraded from v.0.8 to v.0.10. My question is how is UI aware of new features in spice? Is it developed for particular version/features of spice? If there is new feature in spice, can the same version of UI use this new features in some way or is the new version of UI required? This could be important as I update system frequently. If version change of spice could somehow influence UI behaviour, than the policy on daily update should be changed... :)

[Users] oVirt features
by Dimitrije Zivkovic 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

Hi, I got oVirt up and running on my Gentoo server. What I would like to know is if there is some info page on current git version features of oVirt? For example, I would like to know what type of storage is supported as I could only see NFS type on webadmin. So am I doing something wrong or am I just blind? :) Also, if there is something I could help about related to Gentoo and oVirt, let me know...

[Users] ovirt vs RHEV-M
by Gary Scarborough 10 Nov '11

10 Nov '11

I see you have instructions for building the ovirt manager up on the wiki. My question is: How does this compare to what Red Hat is shipping in RHEL? Is the code base currently the same as what Red Hat is shipping? I am evaluating ovirt for possible deployment in a university setting and wondering if it would be better to pursue a RHEL subscription for our cluster. Any light you could shed on this would be very helpful. Thanks, Gary
