Description Fabrice Bacchella 2016-04-19 13:43:07 UTC 
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/bin/java-home is used to check if the provided OVIRT_ENGINE_JAVA_HOME is good, but in it's check there is :
version="$("${dir}/bin/java" -version 2>&1 | sed \
                                        -e 's/^openjdk version "1\.8\.0.*/VERSION_OK/' \
                                        -e 's/^java version "1\.7\.0.*/VERSION_OK/' \
                                        -e 's/^OpenJDK .*(.*).*/VENDOR_OK/' \
                                )"

So it fails on Oracle Java 8. Is there any good reason for that ?
Comment 1 Fabrice Bacchella 2016-04-19 13:49:11 UTC 
Some people might want to try this JVM, its hotspot compiling is supposed to be faster that on openjdk.
Comment 2 Sandro Bonazzola 2016-04-27 12:34:48 UTC 
Please note Oracle JVM is not the JVM we tested ovirt-engine on and is not officially supported.

We'll have a look to fix above issue but we can't ensure ovirt-engine will work properly there.

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.

Moving from 4.0 alpha to 4.0 beta since 4.0 alpha has been already released and bug is not ON_QA.
