Thanks. What about the system itself? Is yum update enough?

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 /Johan 2017-09-20 14:39 skrev gabriel_skupien@o2.pl:

To be honest, I don't see consistency regarding all that upgrade procedures. Have a look here: www.ovirt.org www.ovirt.org 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.

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 On Wed, Sep 20, 2017 at 6:34 PM, gabriel_skupien@o2.pl < gabriel_skupien@o2.pl> wrote:

That will break the engine most probably. Since engine-setup does more than just installing the package. To ensure a safe upgrade follow these steps. /Johan -- Security all the way ...

Clear.
Well, that´s not entirely true. It´s like this: engine-setup versionlocks the packages that it wants to install and keeps them as they are. Updating them is only possible through engine-setup. All of the other packages you update like usual with yum up(date|grade). So by only running engine-setup, you'll leave a lot of other packages "behind". So before, or after engine-setup, you also need to yum up(date|grade), as well. Sh$t may go wrong if you do, then again, sh$t may go wrong if you don´t :) Best you can do is ask. /K
