Hi,

   upgrade HE (Hosted Engine ) by doing the steps below.

1) Move HE to global maintenance by running the command 'hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=global'
2) Add the required repos which has higher package versions.
3) Run 'yum update ovirt\*setup\*'
4) engine-setup
5) Once the setup is done successfully please move HE out of global maintenance mode by running the command 'hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=none'

For upgrade node you can do the steps below:

1) If there is an upgrade link present in the 'General' tab of the UI, (if ovirt node) click upgrade from UI which will move the host to maintenance and run upgrade on the system, reboots and brings it back up to Normal state.

2) If you do not see the upgrade link, then add the repos to which you would want to update the node.

3) Run 'yum update'

4) Reboot the system.

5) make sure that you are on the latest image by running 'imgbase w' if it is a ovirt node.

6)otherwise just make sure that you are on the latest kernel once your upgrade finishes.

Hope this helps !!!!

Thanks
kasturi

To be honest, I don't see consistency regarding all that upgrade procedures. Have a look here:
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade-guide/chap-Updating_the_oVirt_Environment/
It asks to update the system too :)

I will appreciate if somebody clearly explains:
-to upgrade the Node - please do this and this
-to upgrade the Hosted-Engine - please do this and this.

If you follow that guide it will update everything on the virtual server
running the engine. You should not run yum to upgrade the packages
(correct me anyone if i am wrong about this)

The engine-setup will download and install the packages for you.

And on the nodes  upgrade first via the web interface and after that you
can upgrade with yum on the nodes. Don't forget to have the node in
maintence mode when you run yum update

Thanks. What about the system itself?

Is yum update enough?

Follow this guide if it is between minor releases




Don't forget to send the hosted-engine to global maintenance

In oVirt Engine Web Administration portal I can see option to
upgrade the nodes but can't see any option to upgrade
hosted-engine itself?

What is the recommended procedure for it?
