Thanks for the prompt reply.
I assume I can safely ignore the "Upgrade cluster compatibility" warning until libvirt 6.6 gets pushed to CentOS 8.3?

We are working on releasing AV 8.3, hopefully it will be available soon, but until that happen you have no way how to upgrade to CL 4.5 and you just need to stay in 4.4

Shani,

1. I created a new 4.5 cluster with the same CPU (Secure Intel Cascadelake Server Family) and platform type (Q35/BIOS).
2. All 3 hosts are 8.3, but report 4.4 compatibility.
3. The only reason I attempted to upgrade the cluster was simple: The cluster state kept on dropping down to "unavailable" (even though all 3 hosts are up) and I was offered to upgrade the cluster to v4.5.

Hi Gilboa,

Here are some guidelines/checks:
- Are you able to create a 4.5 DC/cluster?
- Host can be Up in the 4.5 clusters only when it reports 4.5 level compatibility (it's based on RHEL 8.3).
  Can you make sure that on all 3 hosts?
- You can upgrade the 4.4 clusters to 4.5 only when all Up/NonOperational hosts are reporting 4.5 level
- You can upgrade 4.4 DC to 4.5 only when all clusters inside are on the 4.5 level
- A 4.5 host-based on RHEL 8.3 should be fully functional in 4.2/4.3/4.4 clusters


Regards,

Hello all,

I'm more-or-less finished building a new ovirt over glusterfs cluster with 3 fairly beefy servers.
Nodes were fully upgraded to CentOS Linux release 8.3.2011 before they joined the cluster.
Looking at the cluster view in the WebUI, I get an exclamation mark with the following message: "Upgrade cluster compatibility level".
When I try to upgrade the cluster, 2 of the 3 hosts go into maintenance and reboot, but once the procedure is complete, the cluster version remains the same.
Looking at the host vdsm logs, I see that once the engine refreshes their capabilities, all hosts return 4.2-4.4 and not 4.5.

E.g.
 'supportedENGINEs': ['4.2', '4.3', '4.4'], 'clusterLevels': ['4.2', '4.3', '4.4']
I assume I should be seeing 4.5 after the upgrade, no?

AmI missing something?

EL 8.3 is not enough, you also need Advanced Virtualization 8.3 (in particular libvirt 6.6)

Thanks,
- Gilboa
