From tech review of the 4.2 OVN updates (BZ#1457031): > If you have installed it prior to 4.2, you will need to make a manual > update to its "networking plugin" value (set it to "oVirt Network Provider > for OVN"). > It is likely for customers which have installed for trial in 4.1 OVN providers installed as a tech preview in 4.1 need to be manually updated for 4.2. I can add this as a note in the OVN section, but someone who already has it installed is unlikely to look there, so it would be most useful in the Upgrade Guide. Edit provider > Networking Plugin > oVirt Network Provider for OVN Also need to add the Networking Plugin field to the External Network Provider section of the Add Provider table: > In the "External Network Provider" section we are missing: > "Networking Plugin" > the value of this field determines which implementation of the driver > will be used on the host to handle nic operations > this also determines which driver will be installed on the host during host setup
Accepting into the GA program and assigning to Tahlia for review. Tahlia, I've added a dependency on the upgrade bugs that Emma will work on, since part of your work will be adding a note somewhere in that content when it's available.
