Doc Text:
The Satellite Virtualization Agent is no longer required to run on a `subscription-manager`-registered system. The only requirement is that it must be configured to communicate with the Satellite via the configuration file. The performance of the Virtualization Agent has been improved when interacting with VMWare for polling and inventory operations.

Bug 1179766 has 4 questions, two refer to virt-who changes and two refer to adding virt-who benefits to the Satellite 6.1 Release notes. I'm splitting this bug into two bugs:

Bug 1179766 addresses the two virt-who changes.
This new bug addresses the two release note additions, as follows:
2. virt-who is no longer required to run on subscription-manager registered system
4. vmware performance improved

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2015-05-06 13:32:32 UTC
Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been
set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.

Comment 2 Deon Ballard 2015-07-15 03:59:20 UTC
Assigning to DavidO to include in the release notes.

Comment 5 David O'Brien 2015-08-07 12:21:46 UTC
So for rel notes, are the benefits just:
1. virt-who is no longer required to run on subscription-manager registered system

and

2. vmware performance improved

Is there some sort of elaboration we'd like to include? I haven't worked with virt-who at all.

thanks

Comment 6 Mike McCune 2015-08-18 21:08:33 UTC
You can just expand on the above:

1. virt-who is no longer required to run on subscription-manager registered system and just needs to be configured to communicate with the Satellite via the configuration file.

2. We have improved the performance of virt-who in interacting with VMWare for polling and inventory operations.
