Re: [ovirt-devel] [ovirt-users] [ANN] oVirt 3.4.4 Release is now available
Cool!
However, the instructions for upgrading a Hosted Engine setup look
suspiciously out of date and divergent from the instructions for
upgrading standalone engine (e.g. you never run engine-setup??).
Is this page accurate:
http://www.ovirt.org/Hosted_Engine_Howto#Upgrade_Hosted_Engine
I just fixed a bunch of egregious typos on the page myself - all of the
hosted-engine invocation lines were incorrect (e.g. "hosted-engine
--set-maintenance=global" instead of the now-corrected syntax:
"hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=global"). This makes me somewhat
cautious about the rest of the page content I'm afraid.
Is it accurate to say that when upgrading a Hosted Engine setup you
basically just upgrade the packages (while carefully orchestrating which
services are up at the time), and never run engine-setup?
If that page *is* accurate, why is engine-setup required for upgrading a
standalone engine?
Thanks,
Bob

The oVirt development team is pleased to announce the general
availability of oVirt 3.4.4 as of Sep 23th 2014. This release
solidifies oVirt as a leading KVM management application and open
source alternative to VMware vSphere.
oVirt is available now for Fedora 19 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5
(or similar).
This release of oVirt includes numerous bug fixes.
See the release notes [1] for a list of the new features and bugs fixed.
The existing repository ovirt-3.4 has been updated for delivering this
release without the need of enabling any other repository, however since we
introduced package signing you need an additional step in order to get
the public keys installed on your system if you're upgrading from an older release.
Please refer to release notes [1] for Installation / Upgrade instructions.
Please note that mirrors will need a couple of days before being synchronized.
If you want to be sure to use latest rpms and don't want to wait for the mirrors,
you can edit /etc/yum.repos.d/ovirt-3.4.repo commenting the mirror line and
removing the comment on baseurl line.
A new oVirt Live ISO will be available too[2].
