Description Paul Dwyer 2016-02-04 12:53:09 EST

Description of problem:
The NTP configuration for the automated RHEV hypervisor is incorrect in the documentation it suggests multiple servers can be supplied separated by ":" when it should be ","

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Noted in RHEV3.5 documentation but also still wrong in RHEV3.6 documentation at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.6-Beta/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#Networking_Parameters
Section 7.4.4

This should specify that comma "," be used to separate ntp servers similar to what is required for dns servers.

Automated hypervisor install fails when using ":" as a separator.


Additional info:
scripts/ovirt-init-functions.sh.in
# oVirt boot parameters
...
#   dns=server[,server]
#   ntp=server[,server]|off
