[ovirt-users] Re: About the cluster compatibility version
You have a point. I am increasingly aware of the importance of documentation, especially good documentation that clearly illustrates the history of development, which can help readers quickly get started with software systems. -Original Message- From: Vojtech Juranek Sent: Friday, July 30, 2021 4:21 PM To: tommy Cc: users@ovirt.org Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] About the cluster compatibility version On Friday, 30 July 2021 09:51:08 CEST you wrote: > I still find a lot of errors in the document, but I don't know how to help? > Can you tell me the steps to improve the documentation? you need to find appropriate document, fix it and send a pull request. There's a README [1] with the step in oVirt site git repo [1] or if you want to send a pull request, you can find guide how to do it on [2]. Looking more into the original question you asked, it's maybe correct. I don't know if we have any strict rules when cluster version is bumped, but it seems in the past it was done mainly to ensure OS has specific features provided advanced virtualization packages, which are usually available only on specific OS version and higher. So in this case the documentation is correct (and I was wrong in my previous answer), as OS version determines packages available on the host and these determines capabilities of tools (like libvirt, qemu) which oVirt is build upon.
