Seems the problem, atleast part of it (because still, it doesn't get to the part of
creating the imgbase layer) is related to the /tmp/yum_updates file.
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/ansible-runner-service-project/project/roles/ovirt-host-check-upgrade/tasks/main.yml
yum check-update -q | cut -d ' ' -f1 | sed '/^$/d' >>
/tmp/yum_updates
For some reason it also lists those packages:
gluster-ansible-cluster.src
gluster-ansible-infra.src
gluster-ansible-maintenance.src
gluster-ansible-roles.src
Which do not exists, those are source RPMs, so the ansible playbook for the host upgrade
fails.
I did a quick workaround and added an "egrep -v src"
yum check-update -q | egrep -v src | cut -d ' ' -f1 | sed '/^$/d' >>
/tmp/yum_updates
So now the ansible-playbook doesn't fail, it does says the upgrade was successful the
host reboots, but it doesn't get upgraded.
Also, i noticed that the playbook does make sure that the dnf cache is up to date
(update_cache is set to true) when first checking the ovirt-host package, but it also does
this for every single package in the task after, so there's no need for update_cache
there.
As a workaround to upgrade to 4.4.2 i have to reinstall every host with oVirt node 4.4.2
as it seems the upgrade process is broken.
