For RHV 4.2 GA release, we need to replace rhel-7-server-rhv-beta-rpms in the installation procedure with the non-beta channel. (Currently not clear what it will be.) This will affect the Installation Guide and maybe other documents.
Targeting at GA. To confirm: Do we switch to GA repositories for GA only, or for RC? Contact: Aviv Sabadra (RCM lead for RHV)
Thanks for raising this, Avital. Can you provide a rough estimate of the time required to complete this work? We'll use this to determine which milestone to commit this work to.
Correcting GA target.
The repo name structure has changed, and we need to mention it so that no one uses the old repo name structure by mistake. Something along the lines of: "The Red Hat Virtualization Manager's repositories have been changed to allow deployment of multiple Manager machines, and to avoid consuming entitlements from the hosts' SKU. The Manager's repositories are now rhel-7-server-rhv-4.x-manager-rpms and rhel-7-server-rhv-4-manager-tools-rpms, instead of rhel-7-server-rhv-4.x-rpms and rhel-7-server-rhv-4-tools-rpms. Ensure you are using the new repositories; the old repositories will not work in Red Hat Virtualization 4.2." From Moran, in email thread about the new repos: > -due to the close proximity of 4.1.11 and 4.2 releases, i would like to focus > this change only for 4.2 and drop 4.1.z to avoid confusion > -in addition to this change the new SKU/channel should include also free > entitlement for RHEL subscription, and we should change our RHV manger > installation guide to reflect it. > -Ansible engine (which is a dependency for RHVM) should be consumed from the > Ansible 2 channel provided by RHEL subscription (rhel-7-server-ansible-2-rpms) (Ansible repo will be covered in BZ#1560462)
Assigning to Avital for review. Avital, this is another GA-only update that can be applied to the 'master' branch after we have branched for beta.
