We are currently requiring fluentd to be on the engine hosts/appliance while we want to move to pcp + rsyslog according to bug #1615974
Only Rsyslog packages are required at this point.
Hi Sandro. I've made a few tweaks to the Doc Text. I followed our "Glossary of Terms and Conventions for Product Documentation", which says to replace "engine hosts" with "self-hosted engine nodes". I also applied some Shirly's changes from a nearly identical BZ, bz#1627753 Does this all look good to you? Thanks, Rolfe

Thanks for the feedback. Updated the text to reflect your feedback and to replace "Engine" with the standard term, "Red Hat Virtualization Manager". The current release replaces Fluentd with Rsyslog for collecting oVirt logs and collectd metrics. Virtualization hosts managed by Red Hat Virtualization Manager and upgraded from 4.2 will still have Fluentd installed but it will be disabled and stopped. After upgrading to 4.3, you can remove the Fluentd packages. Also, is this a duplicate of bz#1627753?

No, it's not a duplicate. bug #1627753 is changing the dependency tree of ovirt-host package in order to install rsyslog related packages on hosts managed by ovirt-engine while this bug changes the dependency tree of ovirt-engine itself ensuring that rsyslog related packages are installed on the same OS running the ovirt-engine service.

Anything blocking this bugfix verification?
Verified in ovirt-engine-4.3.1.1-0.1.el7.noarch.
