Description Barak 2010-07-31 15:08:31 UTC
RHEV BZ#613059 - RHEV-Agent for RHEL 5.6 depends on the vioserial being available on 5.6.

Comment 1 Barak 2010-07-31 15:12:55 UTC
To be on the safe side - IIUC we need only the guest level support of the vioserial, meaning that those RHEL 5.6 vms will be running on RHEL 6+ hosts.

Comment 18 Jarod Wilson 2010-08-31 01:18:17 UTC
in kernel-2.6.18-214.el5
You can download this test kernel from http://people.redhat.com/jwilson/el5

Detailed testing feedback is always welcomed.
