Description Tomáš Golembiovský 2017-10-03 12:55:44 UTC
I've been notified that the RHEV/oVirt Guest Agent installed in latest rhel-guest-image-7.4-230 is too old. The installed package rhevm-guest-agent-common-1.0.11-3.el7ev has to be updated with ovirt-guest-agent-common version 1.0.13 (we use the upstream name now). The version 1.0.11 is too old and the image will be unusable with the upcoming RHEV 4.2 (see bug 1472293).

I do not know who that would be. 
Leaving this to be addressed by Meital.

Hi all,

I tested it in Ovirt 4.2 version:
Software version:4.2.0-0.0.master.20171012160334.git6fb4578.el7.centos

With guest-image: rhel-guest-image-7.4-230.x86_64
https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/buildinfo?buildID=599859

VM failed to get IP from guest agent. 
See log:

Comment 12 Lubos Kocman 2018-04-15 11:58:23 UTC
Change was merged I did update rhel-7.5 and rhel-7.6 configs.

Comment 14 Israel Pinto 2018-04-22 13:44:28 UTC
Verify with:
Engine version:4.2.3-0.1.el7
rhel-guest-image-7.5-161.x86_64.qcow2

Virt sanity pass
