Hi, please make sure that on your machine you installed correct oVirt repositories [1]. slf4j package is available for EL6 in oVirt 3.6 repo [2].

Perhaps to aid debugging you can try this, but _do_not_ press Enter:
yum --disableplugin=versionlock update ovirt-engine
Kill it (or reply 'no').
What does it output?
Basically the same dependency error. I've attached the full output to this e-mail.
To answer your other questions:
16:43 <didi> fraenki: what happens when you try yum update slf4j?
It is not currently installed (on oVirt 3.5.5) and only the inappropiate version is available:
# yum --showduplicates list slf4j [...] Available Packages slf4j.noarch 1.5.8-8.el6 centos-base
16:44 <didi> fraenki: also for vdsm-jsonrpc-java
# yum update vdsm-jsonrpc-java [...] --> Running transaction check ---> Package vdsm-jsonrpc-java.noarch 0:1.0.15-1.el6 will be updated --> Processing Dependency: vdsm-jsonrpc-java < 1.1.0 for package: ovirt-engine-backend-3.5.5-1.el6.noarch ---> Package vdsm-jsonrpc-java.noarch 0:1.1.5-1.el6 will be an update --> Processing Dependency: slf4j >= 1.6.1 for package: vdsm-jsonrpc-java-1.1.5-1.el6.noarch [...] Error: Package: vdsm-jsonrpc-java-1.1.5-1.el6.noarch (ovirt-3.6) Requires: slf4j >= 1.6.1 Available: slf4j-1.5.8-8.el6.noarch (centos-base) slf4j = 1.5.8-8.el6 [...]
Very similar (of not the same) output to the `yum update ovirt-engine` command.
Where should I get "slf4j >= 1.6.1" from? It does not seem to be available from the "centos-base" repository (there's only slf4j = 1.5.8-8.el6 available): http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/Packages/
16:46 <didi> fraenki: if it still fails for you after the usual things, e.g. yum clean all, check repos etc., I'll try to reproduce
Yeah, tried this. Already wiped my repos and reinstalled ovirt-release36.rpm.
FWIW, I've noticed that a more recent slf4j is available from the SL6 repo at: http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6x/external_products/maven/$... But I fear that this will break things in the long run (and it would replace several other packages as well, very likely to break ovirt-engine completely).
I'd switch my Hosted-Engine VM to EL7 if it wouldn't be such a pain. The only "Upgrade Guide" I could find for Engine VM is this: http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_Hosted_Engine_Backup_and_Restore No fun. :(
This one does not deal with upgrading the engine OS. For that Sandro started [1] but gave up after having some issues.
Yeah, I wasn't really expecting that an in-place upgrade EL6->EL7 would work in this case. That's why I was thinking about the Backup/Restore method...
