Re: [ovirt-users] [ANN] oVirt 3.4.4 Release is now available

Cool! However, the instructions for upgrading a Hosted Engine setup look suspiciously out of date and divergent from the instructions for upgrading standalone engine (e.g. you never run engine-setup??). Is this page accurate: http://www.ovirt.org/Hosted_Engine_Howto#Upgrade_Hosted_Engine I just fixed a bunch of egregious typos on the page myself - all of the hosted-engine invocation lines were incorrect (e.g. "hosted-engine --set-maintenance=global" instead of the now-corrected syntax: "hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=global").

This makes me somewhat cautious about the rest of the page content I'm afraid. Is it accurate to say that when upgrading a Hosted Engine setup you basically just upgrade the packages (while carefully orchestrating which services are up at the time), and never run engine-setup?

If that page *is* accurate, why is engine-setup required for upgrading a standalone engine?
