Didi, Ok, the piece of information on engine still supported on 3.6 was unknown to me. Makes my job a lot easier. What would be the recommended path: first upgrade the nodes to 3.6 and then the engine? Or the other way around? On Tue, Feb 16, 2016 at 8:45 AM, Yedidyah Bar David <didi@redhat.com> wrote:
Yes. I pasted the information on AIO, that was wrong on my end. I have an engine running on dedicated hardware and about 20 nodes in this cluster. I do like to upgrade without downtime :) I know how to achieve this on the node-end, but since I have to go from C6 to C7, I wonder what the

Please explain exactly what you are trying to do.
Note that engine is still supported on el6.
(new) Hosts are not.
all-in-one is running both together, thus is not supported on el6 either.
IIRC we do not have a tested procedure to upgrade the engine from C6 to C7 yet, see also:

Hi Alexander,
Thanks for the input! My 3.5 is running on C6 however:
Upgrade of All-in-One on EL6 is not supported in 3.6. VDSM and the packages requiring it are not built anymore for EL6
Well that was a piece of information you forgot to mention in your
initial
email. So now I am not entirely sure what you are trying to do. Are you trying to save your existing VMs when you reinstall your machine?

Hi,
Can anybody recommend me best practice upgrade path for an upgrade from oVirt 3.5 on C6 to 3.6 on C7.2?
The answer sort of depends on what you want. Do you want no downtime on your VMs or is downtime acceptable. Also are you running hosted engine or not?
This is the basic plan which can be adjusted based on what your needs are:
1. Update engine from 3.5 to 3.6 (if hosted engine might be
not sure haven't played with hosted engine). 2. Create a new 3.6 cluster. 3. Put 1 host in maintenance (which will migrate the VMs to the other hosts). 4. Remove the host from the DC. 5. Install C7.2 on the host 6. Add that host to the new 3.6 cluster. 7. Optional (you can cross cluster live migrate some VMs from 6 to 7 (just not the other way around, so once the VM is moved its stuck in the new cluster). 8. Go to 3 until all hosts are moved. 9. Your 3.5 cluster should now be empty, and can be removed. 10. Upgrade your DC to 3.6 (Can't upgrade if any lower clusters exist).
If you can have downtime, then just shut down the VMs running on the host in step 3 before putting it in maintenance. Once the host is moved to

new cluster you can start the VMs.
