Description Checking RHEV-H-NG 4.0 /etc/redhat-release, there display "Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 7.2 Beta" How reproducible: 100% Test steps: 1. Installed RHEV-H-NG 4.0 beta 1 iso(RHEV-H-7.2-20160616.3-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso) 2. Check /etc/redhat-release # cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 7.2 Beta # cat /etc/os-release NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux" VERSION="7.2" VERSION_ID="7.2" ID="rhel" ID_LIKE="fedora" VARIANT="Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor NG" VARIANT_ID="ovirt-node" PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor NG 4.0" ANSI_COLOR="0;31" CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:7.2:beta:hypervisorng" HOME_URL="https://www.redhat.com/" BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/" # FIXME REDHAT_BUGZILLA_PRODUCT="Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization" REDHAT_BUGZILLA_PRODUCT_VERSION=7.2 REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT="Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization" REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT_VERSION=7.2 # rpm -qa imgbased kernel kernel-3.10.0-327.18.2.el7.x86_64 imgbased-0.7.0-0.1.el7ev.noarch RHEV-H-7.2-20160616.3-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso Actual Result: RHEL 7.2 beta info is in RHEV-H-NG 4.0 /etc/redhat-release Expected Result: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor NG 7.2 Beta is in /etc/redhat-release rather than RHEL info.
After RHEV-H-7.2-20160701.2-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso installation(using the default ks.cfg), it still display the _RHEL_ info in /etc/redhat-release, not match the bug expected result to display RHV Beta info. # rpm -qa redhat-release-rhev-hypervisor redhat-release-rhev-hypervisor-4.0-0.9.el7.x86_64 # cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 7.2
This is intentional. ovirt-host-deploy checks redhat-release to determine the RHEL version. Using the RHEV name/version causes a failure to add the node to engine, as rhel4 is not supported. The RHEV version is shown in the prettyname in os-release.
According to comment 2, this bug need to be reconsidered. Does it mean the users can not find out what version of RHV they are running from /etc/redhat-release file? and this file is provided by redhat-release-rhev-hypervisor rpm, but it display with RHEL info, that will confuse the user what version are they running. # cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 7.2 # rpm -qi --whatprovides /etc/redhat-release Name : redhat-release-rhev-hypervisor Version : 4.0 Release : 0.9.el7 Architecture: x86_64 Install Date: Sat 02 Jul 2016 03:16:40 AM CST Group : System Environment/Base Size : 10204 License : GPLv2 Signature : (none) Source RPM : redhat-release-rhev-hypervisor-4.0-0.9.el7.src.rpm Build Date : Sat 02 Jul 2016 12:17:24 AM CST Build Host : x86-024.build.eng.bos.redhat.com Relocations : (not relocatable) Packager : Red Hat, Inc. <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla> Vendor : Red Hat, Inc.

That's correct -- the version cannot be determined from redhat-release. Putting the version in redhat-release (per comment#2) will break ovirt-host-deploy. redhat-release-rhev-hypervisor probably doesn't need to own redhat-release at all anymore (we tried putting the RHEV version in redhat-release early in the 3.6 tech preview, and it caused problems, so ownership is an artifact of that). The version is visible from rpm -q redhat-release-rhev-hypervisor, imgbase w, and (in beta 2) the cockpit dashboard.
Pending this bug verification, I need to think twice on this bug impact on RHVH.
Ryan, currently we do not have a better solution for this bug, right? If so, I will verify this bug according to comment 4, and do not consider RHEL version info in /etc/redhat-release.

According to comment 7, I have to assign this bug. In latest RHVH 4.0 build(RHVH-7.2-20160804.0-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso, redhat-release-virtualization-host-4.0-0.26.el7), it is still RHEL info in /etc/redhat-release(Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 7.2), it is not PRETTY_NAME(PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Virtualization Host 4.0 (el7.2)")
Please paste os-release. Please note that all fields will be == RHEL Exception: PRETTY_NAME which will name RHVH
(In reply to Fabian Deutsch from comment #9) > Please paste os-release. # cat /etc/os-release NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux" VERSION="7.2" VERSION_ID="7.2" ID="rhel" ID_LIKE="fedora" VARIANT="Red Hat Virtualization Host" VARIANT_ID="ovirt-node" PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Virtualization Host 4.0 (el7.2)" ANSI_COLOR="0;31" CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:7.2:beta:hypervisor" HOME_URL="https://www.redhat.com/" BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/" # FIXME REDHAT_BUGZILLA_PRODUCT="Red Hat Virtualization" REDHAT_BUGZILLA_PRODUCT_VERSION=7.2 REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT="Red Hat Virtualization" REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT_VERSION=7.2 # cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 7.2 > > Please note that all fields will be == RHEL > > Exception: PRETTY_NAME which will name RHVH PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Virtualization Host 4.0 (el7.2)" is correct as RHVH info. Could you check the comment 6 and comment 7, whether we can ignore the RHEL info into /etc/redhat-release?
system-release system-release-cpe and redhat-releae and os-release all contain RHEL informations, except for the PRETTY_NAME field - and the additional VARIANT field. The new os-release looks like: NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux" VERSION="7.2" VERSION_ID="7.2" ID="rhel" ID_LIKE="fedora" VARIANT="Red Hat Virtualization Host" VARIANT_ID="ovirt-node" PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Virtualization Host 4.0 (el7.2)" ANSI_COLOR="0;31" CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:7.2:GA:hypervisor" HOME_URL="https://www.redhat.com/" BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/" # FIXME REDHAT_BUGZILLA_PRODUCT="Red Hat Virtualization" REDHAT_BUGZILLA_PRODUCT_VERSION=7.2 REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT="Red Hat Virtualization" REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT_VERSION=7.2 This should be correct (CPE_NAME field).
VERIFIED this bug according to comment 10 and comment 11. To RHVH, we only care VARIANT and PRETTY_NAME as RHVH information. VARIANT="Red Hat Virtualization Host" PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Virtualization Host 4.0 (el7.2)"
