Description Fabian Deutsch 2016-08-19 08:02:48 UTC 
Description of problem:
Currently vdsm reports RHEL 4.0-1 as the release of Node.

This is incorrect.

As the name is RHEL, and the version and release match RHV.

To align with how RHEL is reported, vdsm should report the RHEL version and release.

This was discovered in bug 1324447 comment 12.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.0

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
RHEL 4.0

Expected results:
RHEL 7.2

Additional info:
The problem is that the version of the package owning /etc/system-release is reported, and not the contents of the package.
On node this file is owned by th enode release file, which carries the RHV version.
Comment 1 Fabian Deutsch 2016-08-22 14:16:59 UTC 
The version reporting is not used in the flow used to update the hypervisor, thus it is not to critical.
