| Description: | The virt-who package provides an agent that collects information about virtual guests present in the system and reports them to the Red Hat Subscription Manager tool.
The virt-who package has been upgraded to upstream version 0.10, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version. This update includes support for multiple vCenter servers, fixed querying by cluster in large ESX environments, corrected communication with Red Hat Satellite server when ESXi has no host, fixed unregistering from Subscription Asset Manager (SAM) server, fixed bug in Virtual Desktop and Server Management (VDSM) mode, support for encrypted credentials, and fixed error when creating new VMs. (BZ#1002640, BZ#994575, BZ#1002447, BZ#1009230, BZ#1011877, BZ#1017056, BZ#1081286, BZ#1082416)
This update also fixes the following bugs:
Previously, the virt-who daemon did not report guest attributes to the server, which disabled the virt_guest_limit feature. With this update, virt-who has been modified to correctly report guest attributes. As a result, virt_guest_limit is now supported by virt-who. (BZ#1098019)
Prior to this update, every call to Libvirtd.listDomains() function from the /usr/share/virt-who/virt/libvirtd/libvirtd.py script opened a new connection to the libvirtd daemon but did not close it. Consequently, after several iterations, virt-who consumed all connections allowed for any client of libvirtd. With this update, Libvirtd.listDomains() has been modified to properly close the livirtd connections, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#1113938)
Users of virt-who are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes these bugs and add these enhancements.
