Comment 1 Markus Armbruster 2014-09-02 14:43:17 EDT

In addition to adding new machine types, the original bug 895959
tracked everything necessary to make old machine types work.  This bug
tracks only adding the new machine types for 7.1, like bug 977864 did
for 7.0 (blocking bug 895959).  I guess we should've cloned bug 977864
instead, but it's not worth cleaning up now.

Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.1.0-4.el7

I think the machine type should be ordered, open a new bz1145042.
