Description of problem: In rhevm 3.4 Admin guide "rhevm-guest-agent" should be modified to "rhevm-guest-agent-common". https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.4/html-single/Administration_Guide/index.html#sect-Guest_Drivers_and_Agents Currently this rhevm-guest-agent is alreasy obsoleted by rhevm-guest-agent-command but docs is not modified. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhevm 3.4 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Docs is still saying "yum install rhevm-guest-agent" Expected results: It should say "yum install rhevm-guest-agent-common" and should mention that "rhevm-guest-agent" is obsoleted.
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.4/html-single/Administration_Guide/index.html#sect-Guest_Drivers_and_Agents In the above link also "rhevm-guest-agent" should be modified in the guest agent section.
Hi Lucy, Would you be able to spin up a Red Hat Enterprise Linux virtual machine to cover the behaviour outlined above and update the documentation to reflect the new work flow? Kind regards, Andrew
Tested install behaviour of rhevm-guest-agent. The original command still works (the system will find rhevm-guest-agent-common and install it anyway), as does the new command "yum install rhevm-guest-agent-common". For clarity and accuracy, I have updated the Guest Agents and Drivers sections (topics 11323 and 9360) to include "rhevm-guest-agent-common" in place of "rhevm-guest-agent".
Documentation Link ------------------------------ https://documentation-devel.engineering.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.5-Beta/html-single/Administration_Guide/index.html#sect-Guest_Drivers_and_Agents What Changed ------------------------------ A new topic was created between the time of my original edit and this QA (and topic 11323 was removed from the guide). This topic refers correctly to "rhevm-guest-agent-common": Installing the Guest Agents and Drivers on Red Hat Enterprise Linux [40908-686460] In the following topic, two instances of "rhevm-guest-agent" were updated to "rhevm-guest-agent-common": Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Guest Drivers and Guest Agents [9360-681031] Updated revision history: [34613-687011] NVR ------------------------------ Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization-Administration_Guide-3.5-Beta-web-en-US-3.5-5.el6eng Moving to ON_QA.
Thanks Lucy. Verified.
