Doc Type:	Enhancement
Doc Text:	Feature: Add a file with RHEV-M compatibility information to the RHEV-H rpm. Reason: This is an internal enhancement to make upgrade from a RHEV-M server better. Result (if any): When installing the rhev-hypervisor6 rpm, a new file called vdsm-compatibility-<version>.txt will appear in /usr/share/rhev-hypervisor. This will contain information used by RHEV-M to determine if the image is a valid upgrade for a managed host.

What format and information is needed?  I don't particularly like hard coding information like this, but it should be doable.

passing the question on to Bug 842767 assignee, Shahar.
[Shahar: This needs to be confirmed with Barak/Itamar, but I think we need information similar to the "clusterLevels" data being returned as part of the "getVdsCaps()" vdsm response (e.g. "['3.0', '3.1']")]

Today we have txt files in: /usr/share/rhev-hypervisor/
such as: 
version-6.3-20120607.0.txt
with one line that represent the version - such as:
6.3,20120607.0

I suggest to add another line with supported cluster versions comma seperated:
3.0,3.1

Reset to assigned -- this causes a rhevm crash when upgrading rhev-h

*** Bug 858249 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 9 Mike Burns 2012-10-12 09:07:58 EDT

committed change will be available in next build.

The compatibility will be added in a new file
vdsm-compatibility-%{version}-%{release}.iso

A symlink pointing to the latest will be created as well named:
vdsm-compatibility.txt

The format of this file is:

3.1,3.0
