Description Lucy Bopf 2017-02-08 04:39:39 UTC 
Red Hat Virtualization Host (RHVH) 4.0 allows users to install RPMs, however installed RPMs are lost after upgrading RHVH.

RHVH 4.1 now includes a yum plug-in that saves and reinstalls RPM packages after upgrading, to ensure that installed RPMs are no longer lost after upgrading.

This will not work when upgrading from RHVH 4.0 to RHVH 4.1.

Any references in the documentation to the old behaviour must be replaced.
