oVirt4.1 add host error. can i upgrade from 4.1 to 4.4? without updating sequentially 4.1-4.2-4.3-4.4

HI! There is an oVirt 4.1 self-hosted engine cluster of two hosts and a storage connected via iscsi. When trying to add another host, it gives an error: "ERROR otopi.context context._executeMethod:151 Failed to execute stage 'Setup validation': Cannot locate vdsm package, possible cause is incorrect channels". Older hosts on Centos 7.5.1804, last on Centos 7.9.2009. Is it possible to go from 4.1 to 4.4 using the third host as the main one for the transfer?

It's not possible to upgrade directly from 4.1 to 4.4, without going through 4.2 and 4.3. AFAIK, most people that want to do this hyper-upgrade do it by installing a new setup and importing the existing storage. That's not the same as an upgrade, so if you go that route, I suggest to learn and test this on a test system first. Good luck and best regards, -- Didi

You should try to add an ovirt node 4.1 if you really want to stay on 4.1 :https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.1/iso/ovirt-node-ng-installer-ovirt/... Whatever, you will never be able to upgrade from 4.1 to 4.4 because 4.4 is only el8. Le 1 mars 2021 07:52, grig.4n@gmail.com a écrit : HI!
