Hi, upgrade from FC20 to FC22 has not been tested and you're welcome to help testing it. What I would suggest is: - make an image of your existing engine (I suggest clonezilla for doing it) - install ovirt-release36 from http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release36.rpm - fedup from fc20 to fc22 directly, without the fc21 step - run rpmconf -a and update relevant config files (be sure to not just overwrite them!) - run postgresql-setup --upgrade - run engine-setup I suggest to update to fc22 directly because there aren't FC21 builds of ovirt engine and the fedup process may not work as expected with missing repos. If the upgrade fails, you can restore the disk image created with clonezilla and retry with a different procedure. If you hit any issue or if you succeed let us know!

So I did a fedup from 20 to 22, which went fairly well. I did have some issues though: named was missing some libraries after the upgrade. Removing named and reinstalling has fixed that up. rpmconf -a is giving me the following error: # rpmconf -a /usr/libexec/pk-command-not-found: error while loading shared libraries: libpackagekit-glib2.so.16: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory dnf provides "*/libpackagekit-glib2.so.16" Last metadata expiration check performed 0:59:14 ago on Sat Dec 26 13:19:20 2015. Error: No Matches found So not sure what's going on there. I do have PackageKit-glib-devel installed. postgresql-setup upgrade Cannot upgrade because the database in /var/lib/pgsql/data is not of compatible previous version 9.2. What do I do about this? I did engine-setup afterwards and everything seems to be running fine. I did have to set my host CPU type back to Sandybridge as it wasn't recognizing my I7 4790K. Seems to be a known issue. I also have explanation points next to all my VMs stating that my time zone configuration differs between the VM config and the guest config, which they do not.

So not sure what's going on there. I do have PackageKit-glib-devel installed.
Try doing "dnf reinstall *PackageKit*" to get everything correctly loaded.
postgresql-setup upgrade
Cannot upgrade because the database in /var/lib/pgsql/data is not of compatible previous version 9.2.
What do I do about this?
The Fedora PostgreSQL packages only include the version of pgsql plus the previous. Fedora 22 had PostgreSQL 9.4 (with upgrade capability from 9.3, which was in Fedora 21). The way to solve that would be to forcibly install the postgresql-upgrade package from Fedora 21 to upgrade it correctly. I'm not sure that would work like you'd hope, though.
I did engine-setup afterwards and everything seems to be running fine.
Then don't worry about it, for now.
I did have to set my host CPU type back to Sandybridge as it wasn't recognizing my I7 4790K. Seems to be a known issue.

Not sure why that's happening. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!

Finally having a chance to get back at this. This ended up not going anywhere near as well as I had originally thought. The reason why the Postgress upgrade was failing was because I was still running 9.3 for some reason after the fedup upgrade. As I started diagnosing the known NFS server problem, I discovered after the fed22 update, it apparently only updates you to the base Fedora 22 packages. You then need to do a dnf update to get the latest. Which then fixed my NFS problem, but then vdsm refused to connect to the database. It was at that point I discovered my installed version of Postgress was now @ 9.4, instead of 9.3. Not sure how I got to 9.3, as I thought Fedora 20, which is where I came from has 9.2, and Fedora 22 had 9.4. So now I did the Postgress upgrade, which worked as expected above. But vdsm still would not connect to the database. After googling that issue, the only suggestion I saw was to remove the password from the vdsm conf file and re-run engine setup. That really upset Ovirt and it wiped out everything and proceeded to start with a fresh configuration, wiping out my datacenter. I do run a nightly ovirt backup, which I attempted to restore from, but it wouldn't let me do that as my backup which was from the previous night was for 3.5, and I was now at 3.6.1. So much for backups. It was at that point I just decided to investigate Hosted Engine, seeing as I was needing to start from scratch. After spending several hours researching that, it appears HE is know where near ready for any sort of daily driver. The WIKI how to seemed severely out of date and I couldn't find a usable engine appliance ISO that seemed to be ready to with out hours or days of additional hacking. So in the end I just re-ran the All-In-One setup and spent a couple hours rebuilding my datacenter. So to the above steps, a dnf update needs to added as a step after the fedup reboot.
I've updgraded this way: fc20->fc21->fc22, because fedup couldn't find GPG-Key for FC22 repos. Next step: postgresql-setup --upgrade, because postgresql refused to start with unupgraded DB. After this I installed oVirt 3.6 release packege and did dnf update --best --allowerasing: it resulted in deletion of old engine packages, but since I've got AIO install, I checked that allinone plugin had also upgraded. First try to run engine-setup said, that it could not connect to DB, so I've copied old pg_hba.conf and also changed max_connections to 150 in postgresql.conf. After all this I've managed to successfully run engine-setup.
Hi would like to be sure of the correct upgrate path to take.
Should I first upgrade Fedora 20 -> Fedora 21 -> Fedora 22
and then upgrade oVirt from 3.5 to 3.6?
Or would be better to upgrade in the Fedora 20: oVirt 3.5 -> oVirt 3.6
and then make the OS upgrades FD20->FD21->FD22

don't says anything about the upgrade path of the OS, but searching I'm aware that
oVirt 3.5 is only compatible with FD20 not with 21, or 22
oVirt 3.6 is only compatible with FD20 not with 21 or 20
