Description Juan Hernández 2016-11-29 15:28:06 UTC
The ovirt-shell is deprecated since version 4.0 of the oVirt, and it will be removed in version 4.2 of oVirt, together with version 3 of the API.

Comment 1 Klaas Demter 2017-11-06 11:22:29 UTC
will there be a replacement for the cli?

Should the deprecation be noted in the RHEVM Shell Guide https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.1/html/rhevm_shell_guide/ ?

Comment 9 Sandro Bonazzola 2018-09-11 06:30:56 UTC
In 4.3 we need to ensure ovirt-engine-cli emits a deprecation warning when executed. The package won't be maintained but will be shipped in 4.3 without support and dropped in 4.4.

I'd prefer to emit message, that this tool is unsupported in 4.3+

ovirt-engine-cli is deprecated from oVirt 4.0 and completely unsupported from oVirt 4.3
