So what IS the process to properly update a single-host host? My guess is:
* shutdown all the VMs
* go into global maint mode (what IS the difference between global and
local?) * shutdown the engine/engine VM * yum update on the host * restart services (or reboot, I guess) * bring the system out of maintenance mode
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. -derek -- Derek Atkins 617-623-3745 derek@ihtfp.com www.ihtfp.com Computer and Internet Security Consultant
