Then I ask : What is the necessity to execute yum update ovirt-engine-setup
if when I execute only engine-setup this script search for updates ?
it is an egg and chicken... as the engine-setup comes from ovirt-engine-setup, it cannot
update the package while running and effect running process.
so if you run the engine-setup of V1, and within the package is updated to V2, V2 has no
effect as V1 keeps running.
there may be a very complex solutions for this issue, including delegate the state to
another instance of setup, but for now, the simplest method is to update the setup
packages before upgrading the product.
