To answer your other questions: It is not currently installed (on oVirt 3.5.5) and only the inappropiate version is available: # yum --showduplicates list slf4j [...] Available Packages slf4j.noarch 1.5.8-8.el6 centos-base # yum update vdsm-jsonrpc-java [...] --> Running transaction check ---> Package vdsm-jsonrpc-java.noarch 0:1.0.15-1.el6 will be updated --> Processing Dependency: vdsm-jsonrpc-java < 1.1.0 for package: ovirt-engine-backend-3.5.5-1.el6.noarch ---> Package vdsm-jsonrpc-java.noarch 0:1.1.5-1.el6 will be an update --> Processing Dependency: slf4j >= 1.6.1 for package: vdsm-jsonrpc-java-1.1.5-1.el6.noarch [...] Error: Package: vdsm-jsonrpc-java-1.1.5-1.el6.noarch (ovirt-3.6) Requires: slf4j >= 1.6.1 Available: slf4j-1.5.8-8.el6.noarch (centos-base) slf4j = 1.5.8-8.el6 [...] Very similar (of not the same) output to the `yum update ovirt-engine` command. Where should I get "slf4j >= 1.6.1" from? It does not seem to be available from the "centos-base" repository (there's only slf4j = 1.5.8-8.el6 available): http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/Packages/ Yeah, tried this. Already wiped my repos and reinstalled ovirt-release36.rpm. FWIW, I've noticed that a more recent slf4j is available from the SL6 repo at: http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6x/external_products/mave... But I fear that this will break things in the long run (and it would replace several other packages as well, very likely to break ovirt-engine completely). Yeah, I wasn't really expecting that an in-place upgrade EL6->EL7 would work in this case. That's why I was thinking about the Backup/Restore method... Regards - Frank
