Hi!
I´ve gone through upgrading from 3.3.2 to 3.3.3 RC on CentOS 6.5 in our test environment, went off without a hitch, so "good job" guys! However something I´d very much like to see fixed is live snapshots for CentOS, especially since it seems to be fixed already for Fedora. Issue already been discussed: http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-December/019090.html
Is this something that can be targeted for 3.3.3 GA?
The problem is that you need a different qemu-kvm package for live snapshots. At the moment the only way to get this package is building it from the srpm: http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/RHEV/SRPMS/qemu... (It's a drop-in replacement).
This version should probably be included in the oVirt or CentOS repositories.
there is a CentOS Cloud SIG being discussed where we'd like to see this resolved. feel free to chime in (maybe cc ovirt mailing list on relevant threads) http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2014-January/009451.html
Awesome you´re discussing this with CentOS, that´s just what I what hoping for! Though, at this point the discussing seemed rather fluffy, nothing substantial. How would you developers, speaking for the oVirt-community, propose to solve this for CentOS _now_ ? I would imagine that the easiest way is that you build and host this one package(qemu-kvm-rhev), since you´ve basically already have the source and recipe (since you´re already providing it for RHEV anyway). Then, once that´s in place, it´s more a question of where to host the packages, in what repository. Be it your own, or some other repo set up for the SIG. This is my view, how I as a user view this issue. -- Med Vänliga Hälsningar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Karli Sjöberg Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Box 7079 (Visiting Address Kronåsvägen 8) S-750 07 Uppsala, Sweden Phone: +46-(0)18-67 15 66 karli.sjoberg@slu.se
