Hello,
I have updated one test environment to 4.2 (it was in 4.1.9)
I have a guest in Oracle Linux 6 and epel 6 repo enabled.
After powering down and start the VM, I saw the exclamation mark regarding ovirt-guest-agent latest version needed.

On the VM the process was dead and I took the time of updatng it 
from ovirt-guest-agent-1.0.12-4.el6.noarch
to ovirt-guest-agent-1.0.13-2.el6.noarch

and start the agent.
All seems ok; no exclamation mark now and I see the ip addresses of the guest in 4.2 web admin gui.



Actually, after comparing better timestamps, the ERROR line is related to the old version of ovirt-guest-agent (1.0.12-4) and it was indeed that version that caused the agent to die:

# service ovirt-guest-agent status
ovirt-guest-agent dead but pid file exists

After updating to 1.0.13-2 and starting the agent, all is ok and the only lines in agent log file are:

MainThread::INFO::2018-05-28 14:57:22,417::ovirt-guest-agent::59::root::Starting oVirt guest agent

Sorry for the noise,
