[Users] Host requirements for 3.4 compatibility

[Darren Evenson]

Thanks Lior. I had the ovirt repositories enabled for the machine with the engine, however I did not realize I needed the repositories also on the host machines. Makes sense, though, especially when using a pre-release version. I must have had it in my head that because I was on Fedora 20 I didn't have to worry about that...

Cheers,

- Darren

Hey Darren,

I don't think it is (at least I couldn't find it with a quick Google).
In fact, I can't even tell you how I knew that 4.14 goes with 3.4... It should be documented better when 3.4 is officially released.

In general, when using beta/rc versions I would recommend following the corresponding test day web page on ovirt.org, as these usually contain the most up-to-date information on how to configure the yum repositories for everything to work.

Yours, Lior.
