Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated rhev-guest-tools-iso package that fixes several bugs is now
available.
Description
The rhev-guest-tools-iso package contains tools and drivers. These tools and
drivers are required by supported Windows guest operating systems when installed
as guests on Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Installing the rhev-guest-tools on a Windows 8 32-bit virtual machine
occasionally produced a warning about a missing signature for the VioStor
driver, even though the signature was valid. This has now been fixed, and the
warning no longer appears. (BZ#1030453)
- Previously, a host could not receive data from a Windows 2012R2 virtual
machine which had rhev-agent installed. This has now been fixed, and rhev-agent
works as expected. (BZ#1037912)
All Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization users are advised to upgrade to this
updated rhev-guest-tools-iso package, which fixes these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
