Comment 3 Yaniv Kaul 2012-09-04 13:04:37 UTC
Danken, why do we need vdsm-tool on RHEVH?

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2012-09-04 13:13:19 UTC
Since this bug report was entered in bugzilla, the release flag has been
set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.

Comment 5 Dan Kenigsberg 2012-09-04 14:17:02 UTC
We do not need vdsm-tool in rhev-3.1. It is there only because it has existed upstream when we've rebased. It has no code, not only no man page. If it confuses Support and customers, it can safely be removed from downstream.

Comment 6 Yaniv Bronhaim 2012-09-05 10:50:09 UTC
