flexvdi-config now starts chronyd as the NTP daemon, instead of ntpd in systems that have none of them enabled.

Until now flexvdi-config enabled ntpd if it was not enabled in the flexVDI Host, as part of the setup. Since 3.1.5, it enables chronyd instead, but only if neither chronyd nor ntpd are enabled and running in the system.

flexVDI Hosts that are currently running ntpd, will not be modified by flexvdi-config.

The new release can be updated executing in the flexVDI hosts:

# yum -y update flexvdi-config

• flexVDI Manager hardware clock and timezone will be the same used by the host. This release copies the timezone used by the flexVDI Host to the flexVDI Manager when installing or updating it. Needs flexVDI-agent >= 3.1.7 to keep the clock right after restarting flexVDI manager.
• Show more details when flexvdi portal can’t be reached
• Fix message to user about how to unregister a Host when reinstalling flexVDI Manager

The timezone in flexVDI Manager will be set with the right value the next time flexVDI manager is updated using flexvdi-config >= 3.1.4.

The new release can be updated executing in the flexVDI hosts:

# yum -y update flexvdi-config

• Bugfix: exporting several guests at the same time failed sometimes.
• Some more information logged about the connection between flexvdi-agent and qemu process.

The new release can be updated executing in the flexVDI hosts:

# yum -y update flexvdi-agent
