The update notifier in the webadmin was originally designed to alert for new vdsm* packages. Now, I noticed that available update of virt packages and more are notified. I know that hot updating qemu-kvm package does break vms that are running on concerned hosts, but what about other one like libvirt-client? I know it is recommended to put in maintenance while updating, but can we update some minor packages without waiting for migration?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Hot-updating any package should not break any running VMs. If it does, it's a bug.</div><div>I personally agree it's not the best habit to do it nevertheless, and I expect users to put hosts to maintenance before performing any upgrade.</div><div><br></div><div>We cannot tell which update requires maintenance and which doesn't (or for that matter - requires a reboot or a service restart) - there's no metadata available to do attached to the packages that can tell us that.</div><div>Y.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
