RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Due to a bug in rhel_guest_image code, the value of the Operating System field in the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager interface was previously incorrectly displayed as "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x" after a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 guest was uploaded and a template imported. This update fixes this bug and the Operating System field now shows the correct guest information.

The RHEL 7 guest image ovf contains:

<Description>RHEL7x64</Description>

Which is set during build time.

Right, this is the "old" os names (== before we introduced the OsInfo which is configuration on the guest os level) and it works because we need to keep backward compatibility.

if you look in share/ovirt-engine/conf/osinfo-defaults.properties
you can see the backward compatibility mapping for old naming

and new OS like rhel7 are not added there anymore.
so the right naming is rhel_Zx64 going fwd

Thanks for that informative answer. I will then adjust the description for the next update. That way the image should turn up correctly.

Comment 15 yuliu 2014-09-11 03:06:47 UTC
Version:
rhel-guest-image-7.0-20140909.0

Steps:
1 Import the image to rhevm and create vm from template.
2 The OS description is "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.x x64"

Verified as above.
