Description Yaniv Bronhaim 2015-03-26 11:29:31 EDT
oVirt 3.6 vdsm (4.17.x) won't support el6. Therefore, we have a lot of code that we can drop

Comment 4 Marina 2015-12-14 11:48:49 EST
Hi Yaniv,

Just to clarify, it will still be possible to run RHEL6 hosts under 3.5 compatibility mode in 3.6, but with older vdsm versions, right?

However, 3.6 vdsm  (4.17.x)  won't install/upgrade to on RHEL6 hosts.
If you run `yum update vdsm` on the host, it would not bring  vdsm.4.17.x and break the system.
