I am unable to upgrade my hosted engine from version 4.4.8 to 4.4.10. I suspect the
problem is because of the obsolescence of CentOS Linux 8.
DNF gives me the following error:
CentOS Linux 8 - AppStream
Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'appstream': Cannot prepare internal
mirrorlist: No URLs in mirrorlist
This is the list of repositories on my engine:

Redownload the latest 4.4 release rpm and install it on the hosts. That
should fix your mirrorlists.
Do be aware that there is an ongoing issue with postgresql-jdbc and
that you'll need to exclude it from the upgrade process with "dnf
update -x postgresql-jdbc" otherwise the engine will fail to start.
You'll also need to exclude ansible-core if you are running centos-
stream.
Also, "oVirt 4.4.x is EOL. Please upgrade to oVirt 4.5 as soon as
practical."

I would add, as you are on CentOS Linux 8, I would recommend switching it
either to some other RHEL clone (Alma, Rocky,...) or to CentOS Stream as a
first step.

Hi,
I have same issue.
Partially I fixed it with conversion to CentOS Stream.
rm -rf /var/cache/dnf
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
sed -i 's/mirrorlist/#mirrorlist/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-*
sed -i 's|#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org|baseurl=http://vault.centos.org|g'
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-*
sudo dnf install --disablerepo='*'
https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release44.rpm
dnf distro-sync —nobest
It install latest oVirt Engine 4.4.10.2, yet Web UI still shows 4.4.7.6.
engine-setup fails with:
[ INFO ] DNF Downloaded CentOS Linux 8 - AppStream
[ ERROR ] DNF Failed to download metadata for repo 'appstream': Cannot prepare
internal mirrorlist: No URLs in mirrorlist
[ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Environment setup': Failed to download metadata
for repo 'appstream': Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: No URLs in mirrorlist
I don’t know if its safe to leave oVirt Engine in this half-upgraded condition or better
to revert back to pristine 4.4.7.6.
Anyone found solution to upgrade to 4.4.10.2 ?
Thanks in advance.

Wouldn't updating the oVirt packages (# dnf update ovirt\*setup\*) switch the
repositories to CentOS Stream?

That's kinda messed up.
You did not need to change the mirrorlists for the base installation,
as the current ovirt-release44.rpm fixes those for you. By doing what
you did, you now have a base system trying to install most of it's
packages from the CentOS vault, which is intermittent / slow with out-
dated packages, and gaining no real benefit from it.
I'd revert those changes, restore your repo files to their default
versions, and install the current ovirt-release rpm.

Hi,
Is this correct order of actions:
1) download ovirt-release44.rpm
2) Remove all repos from /etc/yum.repos.d/ - because of outdated data
3) Install ovirt-release44.rpm, which does have all correct repos’ list inside.

The ovirt-release rpm only contains the repos for oVirt specific stuff.
You've changed the repos for the CentOS base installation. (I.e. the
"core" distribution repos.) To fix this, you need to:
1) Reinstall the centos-stream-repos package.
2) Run rpm --verify * and look for any .repo files under
/etc/yum.repos.d/ in the output then search for the packages they came
from and reinstall them with dnf reinstall <package name>.
3) Download and install ovirt-release44.rpm.

No. The CentOS repos are controlled by the centos-stream-repos package,
but I would not recommend installing that package on a non CentOS
Stream system, as you would have conflicting packages and would most
likely break your underlying system.

Redownload the latest 4.4 release rpm and install it on the hosts.
That
should fix your mirrorlists.
Patrick, I'm not sure how updating the hosts first would fix the
mirrorlist/repositories on the hosted engine.
The command I ran on the hosted engine, per the published instructions was:
# dnf update ovirt\*setup\*
which should update only the oVirt packages. Can/should I disable the broken CentOS Linux
repositories and try again?
10:48 a.m.
Sorry for the delay, my mail client missed this one.
The ovirt-release<major><minor>.rpm package contains the ovirt-*.repo
files which define the mirrorlists used to install / update oVirt's
packages for that specific major and minor version of oVirt.
The ovirt\*setup\* packages only contain the files needed to install /
upgrade the engine itself. They do not have the .repo files needed to
locate those packages.
