Upgrade path from running 3.6 (centos 7) to 4.1

Hi, i'm running an ovirt cluster in 3.6 (centos 7) no hosted engine. Is it possible to upgrade directly from 3.6 to 4.1? Or this is not recommended. Thanks, Lionel

It's not possible. You need to go through 4.0. Best,

A Few weeks ago I did upgrade from 3.5 to 4.1 The release-by-release (3.5 -> 3.6 -> 4.0 -> 4.1)upgrade we found out as very time consuming, since we were running CentOS 6 on all HOST and Engine too. We decided to install new 4.1 and migrate the VM. The only disadvantage of this upgrade is the VM downtime during the migration. You need to export and import them again.

Agree, it takes time - but there is the InCluster migration policy which allows mixing (in a single direction - EL6 -> EL7) hosts, especially to prevent downtime.
The only disadvantage of this upgrade is the VM downtime during the migration. You need to export and import them again.
What about detach and attach the storage domain? Wasn't that a viable option? Or did you prefer export-import one (or several) VMs at a time? Y.
