moVirt is not using the SDKs, it is talking to API directly. But the general rule for the clients (moVirt but also ManageIQ) works like this: - check the version of the API right at the beginning - according to the found version use either the new or the old api > > Right now if you use the old SDK you should be able to "talk" with both 3.6 > and 4.0, because 4.0 api provides backward compatibility with 3.6.
