Hello list,

I'm trying to upgrade a self-hosted engine RHEV environment running 3.5/el6 to 3.6/el7. I'm following the process outlined in these two documents:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.6/html/Self-Hosted_Engine_Guide/Upgrading_the_Self-Hosted_Engine_from_6_to_7.html

https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2300331

The problem I'm having is I don't seem to be able to apply the "InClusterUpgrade" policy (procedure 5.5, step 4). I get the following error:

Can not start cluster upgrade mode, see below for details:

VM HostedEngine with id 5ca9cb38-82e5-4eea-8ff6-e2bc33598211 is configured to be not migratable.

But the HostedEngine VM is not one I can edit due to being mid-upgrade. And even if I could, the setting its complaining about can't be managed by the engine (I tried in another RHEV instance).

Is this a bug? What am I missing to be able to move on? As it seems now, the InClusterUpgrade scheduling policy is useless and can't actually be used.

Thanks for any suggestions/help,

Scott
