shutdown or hibernate all the other VMs.
set global maintenance mode to avoid ovirt-ha-agent trying to restart the
engine vm
shutdown the engine VM (from the host CLI) with hosted-engine
--vm-shutdown
This is in lieu of "shutdown -h now" from the engine VM? (i.e., will this
perform a clean shutdown from within the VM?)
yum update
restart services
So I don't need to run a host equivalent of "engine-setup"? Great.
bring the system out of global maintenance mode: in a couple of
minutes
the
HA agent should restart the engine VM
Perfect. Thanks. I'll go test this shortly.
