oVirt 3.4.2 Release Notes

The oVirt Project is pleased to announce the availability of oVirt 3.4.2 release.

oVirt is an open source alternative to VMware vSphere, and provides an awesome KVM management interface for multi-node virtualization.

To find out more about features which were added in previous oVirt releases, check out the oVirt 3.4.1 release notes, oVirt 3.4 Release Notes, oVirt 3.3.5 release notes, oVirt 3.2 release notes and oVirt 3.1 release notes.

Install / Upgrade from previous versions

Fedora / CentOS / RHEL

In order to install it on a clean system, you need to install

# yum localinstall http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release34.rpm

If you’re upgrading from a previous version you should have ovirt-release package already installed on your system.

You can then install ovirt-release34.rpm as in a clean install side-by-side.

If you’re upgrading from oVirt 3.4.0 you can now remove ovirt-release package:

  # yum remove ovirt-release
  # yum update "ovirt-engine-setup*"
  # engine-setup

If you’re upgrading from 3.3.2 or later, keep ovirt-release rpm in place until the upgrade is completed. See oVirt 3.4.0 release notes for upgrading from previous versions.

oVirt Live

A new oVirt Live ISO is available:

http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.4/iso/ovirt-live-el6-3.4.2.iso
