[ANN] oVirt 4.1.5 General Availability Release is now available

The oVirt Project is pleased to announce the availability of the General Availability Release of oVirt 4.1.5, as of August 22nd, 2017 This update is the fifth in a series of stabilization updates to the 4.1 series. 4.1.5 brings more than 20 enhancements and more than 90 bugfixes, including more than 40 high or urgent severity fixes, on top of oVirt 4.1 series Starting 4.1.5 oVirt supports libgfapi [5]. Using libgfapi provides a real performance boost for ovirt when using GlusterFS . Due to a known issue [6], using this will break live storage migration. This is expected to be fixed soon. If you do not use live storage migration you can give it a try. Use [7] for more details on how to enable it. This release is available now for: * Fedora 24 (tech preview) * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 or later * CentOS Linux (or similar) 7.3 or later This release supports Hypervisor Hosts running: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 or later * CentOS Linux (or similar) 7.3 or later * oVirt Node 4.1 * Fedora 24 (tech preview) See the release notes draft [3] for installation / upgrade instructions and a list of new features and bugs fixed. Notes: - oVirt Appliance is already available - oVirt Live is already available[4] - oVirt Node is already available[4] Additional Resources: * Read more about the oVirt 4.1.5 release highlights: http://www.ovirt.org/release/4.1.5/ * Get more oVirt Project updates on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ovirt * Check out the latest project news on the oVirt blog: http://www.ovirt.org/blog/ [1] https://www.ovirt.org/community/ [2] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?classification=oVirt [3] http://www.ovirt.org/release/4.1.5/ [4] http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.1-pre/iso/ [5] http://staged-gluster-docs.readthedocs.io/en/release3.7.0beta1/Features/libg...

Hi all, I've tried to enable this, but can't get it working. Has anyone managed to do this and have pointers? The instructions on the linked page seem to be a mixture of truly ancient (from 2013) and modern, and it's difficult to figure out what one actually needs to do. I've set "option rpc-auth-allow-insecure on" in my glusterd.vol and "server.allow-insecure" on the relevant volume, then restarted all my Gluster daemons. I did a rolling restart as I can't currently shut everything down and bring it all back up, but I can use 'qemu-img info gluster:///[...]' successfully. I've enabled LibgfApiSupported and restarted the engine. Starting VMs now fails: it tries to start the VM on each host and fails with the same message from libvirt: libvirtd[2822]: failed to initialize gluster connection (src=0x7f748801ff50 priv=0x7f74880367b0): Success Unfortunately I can't see anything of much use in vdsm.log, /var/log/messages, or the Gluster logs. I'm using oVirt 4.1.5 and GlusterFS 3.10.5 on CentOS 7.3. Thanks, Chris -- Chris Boot bootc@bootc.net

I'm using oVirt 4.1.5 and GlusterFS 3.10.5 on CentOS 7.3.
aside from gluster,I’d suggest to wait for CentOS 7.4 and qemu-kvm-ev 2.9, libvirt 3.2. I would expect few relevant fixes
Thanks, Chris

Hi Michal, Actually you can manually install the packages from earlier (sub-)versions since these are still in the repo, however I don't really see the reason to do so. Once the new stable version is released it's recommended to install that version. Do you think it can be usable to actually maintain separate repos for each sub-versions that we release? E.g. 4.1.1, 4.1.2, etc. etc. ? If so, for which practical use ? Thanks in advance, On Tue, Aug 29, 2017 at 10:52 AM, Michal Skrivanek < michal.skrivanek@redhat.com> wrote:

The oVirt Project is pleased to announce the availability of the General Availability Release of oVirt 4.1.5, as of August 22nd, 2017
This update is the fifth in a series of stabilization updates to the 4.1 series. 4.1.5 brings more than 20 enhancements and more than 90 bugfixes, including more than 40 high or urgent severity fixes, on top of oVirt 4.1 series
I was a bit surprised to find out that the repo content is always replaced. There is no way how to install 4.1.4 anymore? Or any package from 4.1.4. This sounds quite unusual
Starting 4.1.5 oVirt supports libgfapi [5]. Using libgfapi provides a real performance boost for ovirt when using GlusterFS . Due to a known issue [6], using this will break live storage migration. This is expected to be fixed soon. If you do not use live storage migration you can give it a try. Use [7] for more details on how to enable it.
This release is available now for: * Fedora 24 (tech preview)
do we still want to say that when F24 is EOL?
* Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 or later
I know “or later” covers that, but it might make sense to explicitly mention RHEL 7.4 is the tested baseline
Thanks, michal
* CentOS Linux (or similar) 7.3 or later
This release supports Hypervisor Hosts running: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 or later
* CentOS Linux (or similar) 7.3 or later * oVirt Node 4.1 * Fedora 24 (tech preview)
See the release notes draft [3] for installation / upgrade instructions and a list of new features and bugs fixed.
Notes: - oVirt Appliance is already available - oVirt Live is already available[4] - oVirt Node is already available[4]

No, I just think that modifying history is not a good idea and the repo = should be as any other repo with all files available during the intended = life of the release, so in this case whole 4.1.z Thanks, michal

Hi Michal, Take a look at i.e. http://plain.resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.1/rpm/el7/noarch/ There are multiple versions of packages there. Please note that yum by default will hide all but the most recent version. Thanks in advance, On Tue, Aug 29, 2017 at 1:24 PM, Michal Skrivanek < michal.skrivanek@redhat.com> wrote:

Hi Michal,
Actually you can manually install the packages from earlier (sub-)versions since these are still in the repo,
Hi Lev, ah, ok. where did they go if they are not in the repos pulled in by the ovirt-release41.rpm?
however I don't really see the reason to do so. Once the new stable version is released it's recommended to install that version.
sure, but normally you do not remove things from repository, you just add new versions next to the old ones
Do you think it can be usable to actually maintain separate repos for each sub-versions that we release? E.g. 4.1.1, 4.1.2, etc. etc. ? If so, for which practical use ?
No, I just think that modifying history is not a good idea and the repo should be as any other repo with all files available during the intended life of the release, so in this case whole 4.1.z
Thanks, michal
Thanks in advance,

The oVirt Project is pleased to announce the availability of the General Availability Release of oVirt 4.1.5, as of August 22nd, 2017
This update is the fifth in a series of stabilization updates to the 4.1 series. 4.1.5 brings more than 20 enhancements and more than 90 bugfixes, including more than 40 high or urgent severity fixes, on top of oVirt 4.1 series
I was a bit surprised to find out that the repo content is always replaced. There is no way how to install 4.1.4 anymore? Or any package from 4.1.4. This sounds quite unusual
Starting 4.1.5 oVirt supports libgfapi [5]. Using libgfapi provides a real performance boost for ovirt when using GlusterFS . Due to a known issue [6], using this will break live storage migration. This is expected to be fixed soon. If you do not use live storage migration you can give it a try. Use [7] for more details on how to enable it.
This release is available now for: * Fedora 24 (tech preview)
do we still want to say that when F24 is EOL?
* Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 or later
I know “or later” covers that, but it might make sense to explicitly mention RHEL 7.4 is the tested baseline
Thanks, michal
* CentOS Linux (or similar) 7.3 or later
This release supports Hypervisor Hosts running: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 or later
* CentOS Linux (or similar) 7.3 or later * oVirt Node 4.1 * Fedora 24 (tech preview)
See the release notes draft [3] for installation / upgrade instructions and a list of new features and bugs fixed.
Notes: - oVirt Appliance is already available - oVirt Live is already available[4] - oVirt Node is already available[4]
