I do come across occasional bugs where people were using mixed environments with Compute nodes on RHEL6. But that doesn't mean, OpenStack Gate should continue to use ancient versions. > Regarding RHEL, I think this is a safe bet because in Kilo nova dropped > python 2.6 support and RHEL > 6 doesn't have py26 so you'd be in trouble > running kilo+ nova on RHEL 6.x anyway. > > There are some workarounds in the code [4] I'd like to see removed by > bumping the minimum required version. It'd be helpful to see this change (increasing the min libvirt version) in Gate, not least because it saves time spent on debugging issues that were fixed in newer libvirt releases. Speaking of versions, libvirt 1.2.2 was released on 02-MAR-2014 and QEMU 1.3.0 was released on 03-DEC-2012 -- both sound more than reasonable, FWIW. Maybe QEMU min version can be bumped too? -- /kashyap __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: [email protected]?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
