Host has available update for ovirt-host, but nothing found
I have 4.3.3 on engine and hosts in 4.3.3 with plain CentOS, updated from 4.3.2 on 2/5. Since the day after, 3/5, I get the event Check for available updates on host ov200 was completed successfully with message 'found updates for packages ovirt-host'. and also the icon at side of host in web admin gui. But: [root@ov200 ~]# yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager, : vdsmupgrade This system is not registered with an entitlement server.

That's weird. Can you check in yum.log (or yum history) if you ever had it, and when/why it was removed?

If you try to, does it bring with it any dependencies? Generally speaking: ovirt-host is a meta-package, not providing any content by itself, that depends on all the packages that we need on oVirt hosts. It's installed by default in node (it's actually the main means used to decide what to put there, other than base OS), installed/updated by ovirt-host-deploy, etc. So, yes, you should install it. If, when you try to install it, it does not add any dependencies with it, then strictly speaking, you do not have to, because it will do nothing (other than get rid of the icon in the ui).

yes, 148 dependent packages.... See full output here, I didn't apply at the moment https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hpkREaUFTVYTagLLIvCIF0xDR4zRVC96/view?usp=s... Please note that this environment, external engine and CentOS hosts, was initially installed in 4.0.6 at beginning of 2017. Donna if this can be of impact.

Up to 4.3.2 and initial 4.3.3 the hosts didn't get this kind of requirement. It was a bug before or perhaps a problem introduced by the 4.3.3 async updates Gianluca

ovirt-host was introduced in 4.2 [1] and back-ported to 4.1 at 4.1.7 [2], to allow adding 4.1 hosts to 4.2 engines [3]. In principle, it might have been possible to do something like: 1. Install 4.0 host and add it to 4.0 engine 2. Update to 4.1 using 'yum update' 3. Same, to 4.2 4. Same, to 4.3 Then, you'll get correct vdsm, which should be enough for the engine to be able to talk to it and behave as if all is ok.

Weird. How do you update your hosts? Only via 'yum update'? The engine admin ui? Something else? And you never saw "updates available" icon in the ui? Adding Martin. Best regards, -- Didi

Always putting them into maintenance through web admin gui and then running "yum update". The hosts OS release went from 7.4 to 7.6 during these 2 years and a half and ovirt-release from initial 4.0.6 to 4.3.3.

yes, I got the icon relared to updates, but I think not related to ovirt-host specific package like now.
