Comment 5 Perry Myers 2011-10-17 12:18:55 UTC
I removed the file name from the Technical Note.  Since the end user has no visibility into the RHEVH filesystem, listing out a specific file on the filesystem is meaningless, and creates confusion for the end user in terms of whether or not directly accessing the RHEVH filesystem is supported.

Comment 7 Perry Myers 2011-10-17 12:19:57 UTC
Furthermore, shouldn't the technote define what CPE is?  Most customers will not recognize this acronym and that makes the tech note sort of useless
