Description Barak Korren 2015-11-09 10:30:07 UTC
Description of problem:
Querying the hosts to update the status of the "Update available" icon happens quite infrequently (once a day by default). This means it cannot be used as a feedback mechanism for a sysadmin performing a manual update.
Please make sure the icon status is also updated when bringing a host back from maintenance mode, or provide a way to manually refresh it.

Comment 1 Moti Asayag 2015-11-10 13:35:24 UTC
The functionality could be added as part of the 'refresh capabilities' action to allow the administrator to manually check for updates.

Comment 2 Red Hat Bugzilla Rules Engine 2015-11-30 22:37:37 UTC
Bug tickets must have version flags set prior to targeting them to a release. Please ask maintainer to set the correct version flags and only then set the target milestone.

I'm not sure I see the point in real production environments. Once a day should suffice. We could do it once in every 12h, but we really don't have that many updates.

The main reason to allow that is following: you know that there's some important upgrade, so you want to do upgrade now and not wait until next 'check for upgrade' execution (by default once a day). Without at least 1 detected upgrade the 'Upgrade' button is disabled. So manual execution can be useful at urgent situations.

Comment 5 Sandro Bonazzola 2016-12-12 14:00:55 UTC
The fix for this issue should be included in oVirt 4.1.0 beta 1 released on December 1st. If not included please move back to modified.
