Hi, What is the current status of Ovirt 4.0.6 and EL7.3? From previous threads it seemed to me that there was a potential compatibility issue with the 7.3 kernel and an updated version of vdsm or qemu? I just want to ensure any potential issues have been cleared up before I upgrade my systems. Thanks, -derek -- Derek Atkins 617-623-3745 derek@ihtfp.com www.ihtfp.com Computer and Internet Security Consultant

Hi Robert, Is this the official response from the ovirt team, to use the centos-release-qemu-ev repo? Or will qemu-kvm-common-ev-2.6.0 get released in the ovirt-release40 repo sometime soon? (I'm glad I haven't updated yet!) Thanks, -derek On Thu, December 29, 2016 9:32 pm, Robert Story wrote:

# yum list qemu-kvm-common\* qemu-kvm-common.x86_64 10:1.5.3-126.el7 base

It's the best choice for now. I suppose we will just add it to the repo list instead of re-releasing the package. It's us/Sandro building it anyway:)
Or will qemu-kvm-common-ev-2.6.0 get released in the ovirt-release40 repo sometime soon? (I'm glad I haven't updated yet!)
It wouldn't let you upgrade the host due to the dependency so hopefully nothing would break, but indeed 7.3 needs libvirt-2.0 and qemu-kvm-ev-1.6 Thanks, michal
Thanks,
