Description Yaniv Lavi 2015-02-02 11:22:32 UTC
Description of problem:
We currently only recommend ESR firefox versions on linux and IE. We need to add wiki page describing recommended browsers in a tier model. This page should also unify the spice console support recommendation between Linux and Windows to recommend virt-viewer on these platforms and offer the installation method.

The goal is to define the following tiers for user portal and WebAdmin:

Tier 1 - Fully tested and commitment to fix: 
- FireFox ESR versions on linux

Teir 2 - Partly tested, will probably work. We make best effort to fix issues: 
- Lastest chrome\firefox on any arch. 
- IE9-10.

Teir 3 - Not tested, might work. We try to fix issues that are not major:
- IE11+.
- any other chrome\firefox version.
- other browsers (Safri, Opera).

Comment 1 Yaniv Lavi 2015-02-02 11:31:16 UTC
IE8 should be mentioned as not supported due to technological changes expected in 3.6.

Comment 2 Einav Cohen 2015-07-13 13:54:02 UTC
this is the updated client/browser support matrix for 3.6: 

--
Tier 1 - Fully tested and commitment to fix:
- Browser: Current FireFox ESR version on RHEL; OS: Linux.

Teir 2 - Partly tested, will probably work. We make best effort to fix issues:
- Latest Chrome/Firefox on any OS.
- IE10 and above. 

Teir 3 - Not tested, might work. We try to fix issues that are not major:
- IE9. 
- any Chrome\Firefox version on any OS that is not mentioned in previous tiers. 
- other browsers (Safri, Opera).

Comment 3 Red Hat Bugzilla Rules Engine 2015-10-19 11:00:37 UTC
Target release should be placed once a package build is known to fix a issue. Since this bug is not modified, the target version has been reset. Please use target milestone to plan a fix for a oVirt release.

Comment 4 Sandro Bonazzola 2015-10-26 12:42:17 UTC
this is an automated message. oVirt 3.6.0 RC3 has been released and GA is targeted to next week, Nov 4th 2015.
Please review this bug and if not a blocker, please postpone to a later release.
All bugs not postponed on GA release will be automatically re-targeted to

- 3.6.1 if severity >= high
- 4.0 if severity < high

Comment 5 Sandro Bonazzola 2015-11-05 08:17:46 UTC
oVirt 3.6.0 has been released on November 4th, re-targeting to 3.6.1 since this bug has been marked as high severity

Anyone can pick this up?

I think someone in UX team is best suited for this kind of docs. Einav?

simply need to update the "Recommended browsers" section in the "http://www.ovirt.org/Download" page (I don't even know if I have permissions to update this page). I recommend involve Mikey Ariel if necessary (not sure if she has a BZ user). 

@Yaniv - your advice is needed on whether it makes sense to use the 'Tier 1/2/3' terminology, or if this should be phrased differently.

I should be simpler. Latest Chrome\Firefox\IE10+ should work.
The rest are best effort.

Can we close this one? It was fixed right?

Yes, the http://www.ovirt.org/Download page has been updated by Sandro (thanks Sandro!). Not sure to which status to move this BZ though.
