[ovirt-users] Re: Update Package Conflict

well.. figured the package remove was means to get rid of "upgrade pending" which would then allow me to get engine failover to start working.... but... ya.. don't do that.

How to destroy engine: 1) yum update --allowerasing

2) reboot 3) no more engine starting. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.1/...
