Evgheni Dereveanchin commented on OVIRT-2223:
---------------------------------------------
As most of our slaves are VMs it's probably easiest to rebuild them instead of
upgrading as that will conserve disk space thanks to thin template images. This is in
place for Fedora 28 but not yet tested on CentOS 7. I can spawn a separate ticket from
OVIRT-280 to implement this.
For now I've upgraded vm0002 on Staging and ~170 packages got updated including java
and python libraries as well as other stuff. Put it online so that we can see if any
incompatibilities are detected before upgrading the rest to move OVIRT-2045 forward

Key: OVIRT-2223
URL: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-2223
Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Evgheni Dereveanchin
Assignee: infra
We do update most of the important software on slaves via global_setup yet packages like
the kernel and libraries are left behind. With Fedora this is not a big deal since we
rebuild those every year yet there's still a bunch of CentOS systems which may need
updating. Opening ticket to track the upgrade footprint and test updates if needed.
