Decimal Capacity Binary Capacity 4.70GB 4.38GB The new size will be not bigger than a DVD can take. is this limited to 7.x (which is a new delivery and has no potential backward compatibility issues), or affects 6.x as well? Removing the release notes flag as it is not clear what needs to go into the release notes. Please flag again and provide a bit more context and answer my questions from comment1. Kind regards, Julie (In reply to Itamar Heim from comment #3) > is this limited to 7.x (which is a new delivery and has no potential > backward compatibility issues), or affects 6.x as well? It is a RHEV-H 7.0 only change. Julie, the thing to note here is that the space requirement raises from roughly 2 GB (not sure what the official space requirement is these days), to roughly 10 GB. But I am not sure how the disk requirements are currently specified (if they include swap, and the necessary free space for data or not ..) Fabian, I have cloned the bug for the Installation Guide and need_info you there. Please confirm what I have written is correct, and I also have a question there. Many thanks, Julie Notice: with this change, node do not support rhevh 7.0 beta5(rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141119.0.iso) upgrade to rhevh 7.0 RC and rhevh 7.0 GA. Test Version: rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20150114.0.iso ovirt-node-3.2.1-4.el7.noarch Test step: 1. TUI install rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20150114.0.iso 2. Check the Root&RootBackup in Storage Volumes page 2. Check the Root and RootBackup size after installation Test result: 1. After step2, the default Root & RootBackup size is 4300MB. 1. After step3, the output is as follows. #parted -s -l Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 1049kB 256MB 255MB primary bios_grub 2 256MB 4556MB 4300MB ext2 primary boot 3 4556MB 8856MB 4300MB ext2 primary 4 8856MB 21.5GB 12.6GB primary lvm Test summary: The Root and RootBackup size is changed to 4300MB now. So this issue is fixed in rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20150114.0.iso now. Change the status from ON_QA to Verified.
