[ovirt-users] virt-viewer disabling rhel6

[Lev Veyde]

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,
