Thanks all, So I will need to either have a maint window for this (stop all VMs, etc.) or have a "spare" machine with 96 GB memory :) ... well, we'll see ... i think only real option at the moment is to stop the VMs to do this ...

Hmmm, http://wiki.dreyou.org/**dokuwiki/doku.php?id=ovirt_** rpm_update31to32<http://wiki.dreyou.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=ovirt_rpm_update31to32> says that we'd have to put the host into Maintenance mode before upgrade, is it not possible to run a live upgrade ?
I don't have enough spare hardware to move VMs to for the upgrade of the Hyper-Visors (Ovirt nodes), the VMs cannot be stopped during the day either, we run multiple environments on them by now and are critical for development work.
Anyone a idea of how to get onto 3.2 w/o having to stop the VMs ? If there is now way, fair enoug (i guess), and we'll have to look at alternative temporary hardware & disk before upgrading, however, it'd be really great if someone found a way ?
upgrading the engine shouldn't require stopping the hosts/VMs. for upgrading a host it is recommended to move the host to maintenance first.

I'm also overdue to test this, so stay tuned :) .. I've heard from a different Alex :) that the engine / db got really messed up when he tried, so best to do a backup of everything before attempting a upgrade !

Thanks Alexandr, I hadn't seen that one.
Will go through it.
