Hi, virt-viewer no longer appears to work when trying to launch a console with EL 6.8 and oVirt 4.1. The error is: "At least Remote Viewer version 99.0-1 is required to setup this connection" When I ran remote-viewer in debug mode, it seems that it is deliberately disabling rhel6 by setting the version to a non-existent version: (remote-viewer:23829): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Minimum version '2.0-160' for OS id 'rhev-win64' (remote-viewer:23829): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Minimum version '2.0-160' for OS id 'rhev-win32' (remote-viewer:23829): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Minimum version '2.0-6' for OS id 'rhel7' (remote-viewer:23829): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Minimum version '99.0-1' for OS id 'rhel6' rhel 6.7 (and presumably brfore) works fine. I contacted the maintainers of virt-viewer and they said that this is an ovirt issue. Is this somehow disabled in 4.1? Can someone tell me why this is the case? Thanks in advance for any insights, Cam
Hi Cam, Unfotunately RHEL 6 clients are no longer supported in the oVirt 4.1 due to the new functions that were added which require a more recent version of the virt-viewer, thus the issue. You should use a more recent version e.g. to use RHEL 7 as the client to resolve the issue. Thanks in advance, On Wed, May 31, 2017 at 4:50 PM, cmc <iucounu@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks Michal, that is a huge help. We're busy building an image for EL7 but it isn't yet fully finished, so we're still on 6.x for now. We're updating to 6.8 and then 6.9 in the meantime. Interesting that it still works for 6.7 though - I can't explain that. I have updated RemoteViewerSupportedVersions and restarted the engine and it works like a charm.

Hi Cam, The reason why it works in RHEL 6.7 clients is due to the fact that version of virt-viewer that is supplied with it, doesn't support the mechanism to check for the minimum required version. Wasn't aware we can modify the versions we require through RemoteViewerSupportedVersions config. Michal - thanks for the hint.
