Yes, it's still available. It will be dropped in 4.4.
OK, good to know, time to polish up my ansible or start writing api scripts.
Now that 4.4 popped up, how is that going? I looked a bit at the Gerrit yesterday and right now and see that el8 builds are being done now, great work!
Yeah. I've got a startup script that I use to start all my VMs (see below). I'll need to figure out how to migrate that script to SDK4. It really sucks that there's no SDK4 version of ovirt-shell. I suspect my script will expand by an order of magnitude, and everyone who has written a script around ovirt-shell will have to duplicate effort. I know there is a feature for the engine to autostart VMs (which I believe will be in 4.4), but AFAIK it doesn't do ordering. I need at least one specific VM to start up before everything else.
