Description Nandini Chandra 2020-11-24 21:10:46 UTC
Description of problem:
-----------------------
Configuration of RHV 4.4.3 conversion hosts fails on CFME because the  
nbdkit-plugin-vddk package is missing in the RHEL 8.3 repo.

RHV 4.4.3 hosts are based on RHEL 8.3.

Here's a snippet from the conversion log file.

Comment 2 Nandini Chandra 2020-11-24 21:14:12 UTC
The `nbdkit-plugin-vddk` package has been renamed to `nbdkit-vddk-plugin` in RHEL 8. 
It's still called `nbdkit-plugin-vddk` in RHEL 7.

Comment 5 dmetzger 2020-11-30 14:38:05 UTC
This is not a 5.11.10 blocker.

Comment 6 Nandini Chandra 2020-11-30 21:11:42 UTC
After applying Fabien's patch manually on my CFME appliance,I was able to
1)configure RHV 4.4.3 conversion hosts and
2)successfully migrate VMs to RHV 4.4.3 from VMware using VDDK as the transport method

The testing was done using CFME 5.11.10.
