So I successfully upgraded my engine from 4.06 to 4.1.1 with no major issues.
A nice thing I noticed was that my custom CA certificate for https on the admin and user portals wasn’t clobbered by setup.
I did have to restore my custom settings for ISO uploader, log collector, and websocket proxy:
cp /etc/ovirt-engine/isouploader.conf.d/10-engine-setup.conf.<latest_timestamp> /etc/ovirt-engine/isouploader.conf.d/10-engine-setup.conf
cp /etc/ovirt-engine/ovirt-websocket-proxy.conf.d/10-setup.conf.<latest_timestamp> /etc/ovirt-engine/ovirt-websocket-proxy.conf.d/10-setup.conf
cp /etc/ovirt-engine/logcollector.conf.d/10-engine-setup.conf.<latest_timestamp> /etc/ovirt-engine/logcollector.conf.d/10-engine-setup.conf
The utilities read these files sorted by name, last wins. So you can add '99-my.conf' to each and have it override whatever engine-setup does.
Now I’m moving on to updating the oVirt node hosts, which are currently at oVirt Node 4.0.6.1. (I’m assuming I should do that before attempting to upgrade the cluster and data center compatibility level to 4.1.)
When I right-click on a host and go to Installation / Check for Upgrade, the results are ‘no updates found.’ When I log into that host directly, I notice it’s still got the oVirt 4.0 repo, not 4.1. Is there an extra step I’m missing? The documentation I’ve found (http://www.ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade-guide/chap-Updates_between_Minor_...) doesn’t mention this.
You are right. It's mentioned for the engine in the release notes [1] but not for the hosts. Please file a github issue or send a pull request :-) [1] https://www.ovirt.org/release/4.1.0/

If I can offer some unsolicited feedback: I feel like this list is populated with a lot of questions that could be averted with a little care and feeding of the documentation. It’s unfortunate because that makes for a rocky introduction to oVirt, and it makes it look like a neglected project, which I know is not the case.
Patches are welcome :-)
On a related note, I know this has been discussed before but…
The centralized control in Github for the documentation does not really encourage user contributions. What’s wrong with a wiki? If we’re really concerned about bad or malicious edits being posted, keep the official in git and add a separate wiki that is clearly marked as user-contributed.
That was indeed discussed in the past, I am not aware of any conclusions. Perhaps start a separate thread about this? Adding Duck. Please also note that you can have a look at RHV documentation [2]. Almost all of it applies to oVirt as well (and oVirt's to RHV). [2] https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-virtualization/ Best,
