</span>If you have only one host and it sounds like it then upgrading is a bit<br>
different.<br>
hosted-engine command is available on the HOST.<br>
Just shutdown all VM's, either way will work if you have<br>
ovirt-guest-agent running inside the VM's<br>
place hosted-engine in maintenance mode (hosted-engine --set-maintenance<br>
--mode=global)<br>
ssh, use vnc, into engine<br>
yum upgrade if you want to upgrade the system too, else running<br>
engine-setup will update only ovirt components.<br>
shutdown the engine.<br>
yum upgrade your host, reboot your host, once back up, disable<br>
maintenance mode (replace global with none)<br>
ha-agent and ha-broker will start the engine for you.<br>
