Some newer or advanced virtualization features have been implemented in qemu-kvm-ev which are not able to be backported to qemu-kvm for compatibility reasons. Also, recently qemu-kvm-ev has a newer qemu-kvm version than the one provided by qemu-kvm being qemu-kvm-ev rebuilt from Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization. > > Thanks. > ___ > CentOS-virt mailing list > CentOS-virt@centos.org > https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt > -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology.

Re: [CentOS-virt] Differences between qemu-kvm and qemu-kvm-ev
Sandro, Could you please enumerate the actual technical differences between stock qemu-kvm and qemu-kvm-ev? For example, what could one do with qemu-kvm-ev that cannot with qemu-kvm?

Re: [CentOS-virt] Libvirt enhancement requests
To clarify my own request: RBD (for CEPH) support is available in the version bundled in RHEL 7.2 Beta, so we'll have it in CentOS 7.2 (or whatever will be the identifying number). The hooks seems just like a matter of creating files in the correct location. ..So, all is good in the world once again. Regards, Lucian -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!
