follow-up patch to fix typo: - bootparams="ro rootfstype==ext3 $bootparams" + bootparams="ro rootfstype=ext3 $bootparams"
i could reproduce this bug, but now as only rhev-hypervisor 5.6-6.1 included this fix, but upgrade need at least 2 builds, that means one of them not included this fix, so i will wait for next version to check this bug,
you can also test it by installing the same 5.6-6.1 over 5.6-6.1
fixed on rhev-hypervisor 5.6-6.1, no duplicate boot parameter now after upgrade from 5.6-6.1 to 5.6-6.1, [root@intel-5504-24-1 ~]# cat /etc/default/ovirt # OVIRT_BOOTIF="" OVIRT_STANDALONE="1" OVIRT_BOOTPARAMS=" roottypefs=ext3 ksdevice=bootif lang= kssendmac processor.max_cstate=1 elevator=deadline console=tty0 crashkernel=128M@16M linux=~ liveimg=~ ro=~ check=~"
Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: As a result of multiple in-place upgrades, the "OVIRT_BOOTPARAMS" option in the /etc/default/ovirt configuration file could contain duplicate "rootfstype" boot parameters. This error has been fixed, and the above parameter is no longer duplicated.
