Description Sarvesh Pandit 2015-06-08 14:20:04 UTC
Description of problem:
In RHEV 3.5 documentation section, Installation guide (8.2. Host Compatibility Matrix) -> It is mentioned that RHEV 3.5 with Cluster level 3.4 RHEL 6.6 unsupported but RHEL 6.5 is supported.

Actual results:
unsupported

Expected results:
supported

Additional info:
attaching the KCS article which says supported.

Comment 1 Yaniv Lavi 2015-11-11 13:35:07 UTC
Is the above info correct? 
VDSM support only RHEL 6.5 with cluster level 3.4?

Comment 2 Dan Kenigsberg 2015-11-12 10:56:38 UTC
I am not aware of such limitation. In fact, rhev-3.5's Vdsm has explicit requirements of el6.6-bourn packages (e.g. selinux-policy-targeted >= 3.7.19-260.el6_6.2) and possibly other 6.7 ones.

Historically we recommend customers to upgrade to the most recent minor version, but agree to support them (=look into their bugs) even if they have not done so. However note again that it cannot be a pure old 6.something, as we require explicit new versions.

I suspect that rhel-6.6 was left out of the list, only because we had serious compatibility issues with rhel-6.6.0. But currently, if rhel-6.5 is in, I believe that 6.6 should be there, too.

Comment 3 Julie 2015-11-18 03:22:30 UTC
Hi Dan,
   When RHEL 7.2 gets released, is it supported in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.5 clusters with 3.5 compatibility level?

Cheers,
Julie

Correct. For example, RHEV-H-3.5.6 is going to be based on RHEL-7.2.0.
