[ovirt-users] Update hosted engine to 4.3.8 from 4.3.7 questions
I'd like to update my hosted engine to version 4.3.8 from 4.3.7, but have concerns.
First, on the hosted engine, yum reports that several packages are version locked.
Specifically:
0:ovirt-engine-webadmin-portal-4.3.8.2-1.el7.*
0:ovirt-engine-dwh-4.3.8-1.el7.*
0:ovirt-engine-tools-backup-4.3.8.2-1.el7.*
0:ovirt-engine-restapi-4.3.8.2-1.el7.*
0:ovirt-engine-dbscripts-4.3.8.2-1.el7.*
0:ovirt-engine-4.3.8.2-1.el7.*
0:ovirt-engine-backend-4.3.8.2-1.el7.*
0:ovirt-engine-tools-4.3.8.2-1.el7.*
Is this normal and is it okay to proceed with the update? If it is not normal, what can I
do to correct the problem?
Also, what is the correct procedure to update the engine? Although I tried to read the
documentation, I have encountered conflicting documents so I must ask. Sorry.
This is how I understand it, but am not confident that it is correct:
1. Enable Global HA Maintenance mode.
2. On the engine, run # yum update ovirt*
3. On the engine, run # engine-setup
4. On the engine, run # yum update
4. Reboot the hosted engine. Is "systemctl reboot" acceptable or do I have to
do a "hosted-engine --vm-restart" from a host?
5. Disable Global HA Maintenance mode.
Your expert guidance is much appreciated.
