Hi,
I’m working on upgrading an oVirt 4.3 cluster to the latest 4.5
version.
So far, I’ve successfully performed a test upgrade of the oVirt
Engine
from 4.3 (CentOS 7) to 4.4 (AlmaLinux 8.10).
I’ve encountered some noVNC issues, as described here:
https://forums.oracle.com/ords/apexds/post/olvm-manager-vm-console-novnc-...
I’ll probably leave this issue unresolved for now, as I’m planning to
continue with the upgrade process.
For the next step, I’d like to ask if anyone has experience
installing
and running an oVirt 4.5 cluster (both engine and hosts) on AlmaLinux
8.x.
So far, it seems that I might need to upgrade the OS to AlmaLinux 9
as
well, possibly using ELevate.
If anyone has recently completed a similar migration, I’d really
appreciate any tips or recommendations.
Hello, I recently successfully upgraded all of my hosts from ovirt-node
to alma linux 9 with no issue except some minor one. If you use any
QXL+spice driver, you should update your concerned vms to run VGA+VNC
display graphics before upgraded.
About Engine, a simple engine-backup export/import to your targeted
almaLinux engine will do the job.
Nothing else.
Best regards,
Pavel
