Hi All
I think I have come across this bug:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/5075561
Updating Ovirt to 4.3.10 shows that the kernel installed on the hosts is the version that
has the issue:
3.10.0-1127.8.2.el7.x86_64
The RedHat article suggests updating to kernel-3.10.0-1127.10.1.el7 but running
engine-upgrade-check now shows no updates available from my engine manager.
Is this something I can fix myself or would the updated kernel be available?
Appreciate the advice as new to Ovirt. Normally I would point the hosts to the new kernel
but I think it should be updated through Ovirt manager, correct?
Thanks!

On the engine my update method is the following:
engine-setup
yum upgrade
engine-setup
reboot
So basically run engine-setup which will update the Ovirt packages, then
you can "yum upgrade" to upgrade the base system, then re-run
engine-setup just to be sure nothing broke. Then you can reboot into
the new kernel.
The reason I do this is that engine-setup wont upgrade the full OS
(including kernel) -- it will only update the ovirt packages.
Hope this helps,
Thanks!

Thank you for the response!
I tried to do another upgrade again on the ovirt manager and can confirm that it is now in
the supposedly fixed version of the kernel.
However, when I try to update the hosts using the prescribed gui style method they do
report back as no updates available.
Should I force an update on the kernel on the hosts or is this not advised?
Thanks

There shouldn't be a need. Are you sure the hosts are running the old
kernel? The hosts should just update via "yum update", although I admit
I don't know what the "update" function from the UI does under the
covers. I have a single-host hyperconverged system so I have to update
manually..
You can check if there is anything to do by logging into the host and
running: "yum check-update"; it shouldn't list anything.
Thanks

Yeah, running
yum update
from the affected host shows no packages marked for update:
# yum update
Loaded plugins: enabled_repos_upload, fastestmirror, imgbased-persist, package_upload,
product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager, vdsmupgrade,
: versionlock
This system is not registered with an entitlement server. You can use subscription-manager
to register.
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* ovirt-4.3-epel: fedora.melbourneitmirror.net
No packages marked for update
Uploading Enabled Repositories Report
Cannot upload enabled repos report, is this client registered?
From the host the kernel version is
# uname -r
3.10.0-1127.8.2.el7.x86_64
However, I updated the ovirt manager prior and that seems to have gotten the updated
kernel:
# uname -r
3.10.0-1127.10.1.el7.x86_64
Somehow I cannot get the host to update it's kernel without maybe manually downloading
the RPM but I don't know if that will break the Ovirt setttings.
Appreciate any advice!
Thanks
