Pretty certain this will break things badly.
The un-test but the way that should work is.
Uninstall oVirt 3.0 do not engine-clean
Upgrade from Fedora 16 to Fedora 17.
Add the beta repo's
yum clean all
Yum install ovirt-engine
Run enginue-upgrade and follow it instructions
Has anyone else tested this? I just tried it on a test rig of F16
running 3.0, upgrading to 3.1 beta on F17. All the steps completed fine,
except that I had to remove ovirt-engine-jbossas, which conflicted with
the new, from Fedora, jboss-as, before installing ovirt-engine 3.1.
After engine-upgrade completed, I wasn't able to access the engine.
Jboss-as was stopped, as was httpd. Starting them up didn't make the
engine accessible, though. I just got the default fedora pages for JBoss
and for Apache.
On my own oVirt setup, I moved from 3.0 to 3.1 by moving my VMs and
templates to my export domain, detaching my export and iso domains, and
installing 3.1 from scratch, before importing my iso and export domains
and ferrying my VMs and templates over to my new data domain.
What's the most sane upgrade advice we can offer to oVirt 3.0 users?

Since I was stuck at the DMV all day I haven't had a change to test
these instructions at all before doing these steps I would do a full
backup of the DB and a snapshot of the system. If you can clone the
system and do these steps on a clone even better.
Thanks
