Description Ted Ross 2011-07-13 19:10:11 UTC
Requesting the creation of a new package for RHEL 6.2.  vios-proxy is a stream-socket proxy for providing connectivity between a client on a virtual guest and a server on the hypervisor host.  Communication occurs over virtio-serial links.

Comment 1 Perry Myers 2011-07-13 19:16:29 UTC
This package (for the time being) will be TechPreview.

Also, it will be primarily (only?) used for providing guest/host comms for matahari on kvm guests.  So testing of this package would fall under the matahari qe team in the Cloud BU. 

I've reassigned the distribution bug to the lead QE for matahari (dajohnson), but we don't expect any testing on this component for RHEL 6.2 since it's TechPreview
