Re: [ovirt-users] Comparing upgrade guide between oVirt and RHEV

Being on RHEL 7 OS with 4.0.4 they seems now equivalent - yum update ovirt-engine-setup Dependencies Resolved ==================================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ==================================================================================================== Updating: ovirt-engine-setup noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 10 k Updating for dependencies: ovirt-engine-lib noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 29 k ovirt-engine-setup-base noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 97 k ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-ovirt-engine noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 165 k ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-ovirt-engine-common noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 83 k ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-vmconsole-proxy-helper noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 28 k ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-websocket-proxy noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 27 k Transaction Summary ==================================================================================================== Upgrade 1 Package (+6 Dependent packages) - yum update "ovirt-engine-setup*" Dependencies Resolved ==================================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ==================================================================================================== Updating: ovirt-engine-setup noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 10 k ovirt-engine-setup-base noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 97 k ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-ovirt-engine noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 165 k ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-ovirt-engine-common noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 83 k ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-vmconsole-proxy-helper noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 28 k ovirt-engine-setup-plugin-websocket-proxy noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 27 k Updating for dependencies: ovirt-engine-lib noarch 4.0.5.5-1.el7.centos ovirt-4.0 29 k Transaction Summary ==================================================================================================== Upgrade 6 Packages (+1 Dependent package) Total download size: 440 k Is this ok [y/d/N]: BTW: In my opinion it is not clear in RHEV documentation that if you have a Self Hosted Engine environment you have to put global maintenance before upgrading engine. Inside the Upgrade Guide it is only covered the specific case when you migrate from 3.6 to 4.0 the Self Hosted Engine, while in minor upgrades at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-virtualization/4.0/pag... it is not specified. Inside the Self Hosted Engine guide at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-virtualization/4.0/pag... when describing maintenance modes it is indeed specified " The global maintenance mode must be applied for any setup or upgrade operations that require the engine to be stopped, such as upgrading to a later version of Red Hat Virtualization. " but in my opinion it should be put in clear also inside the Upgrade Guide. In case let me know how can I open a documentation bug for this if you agree. Gianluca
