Re: [ovirt-devel] ovirtm Hosts reinstall button

Hi Paul, The 'reinstall' will attempt to install the latest version of vdsm, it will enroll certificates for the host and more, but if the host was already installed in the system, it will not attempt to re-configure the network. In your case, there seems to be a mismatch between the repositories (of yum) configured on the host to the cluster level. In order to support the host within 3.6 cluster, the host should have the 3.6 repo configured (http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/) Then 'reinstall' will update the latest version of 'vdsm' and will configure it.
