HE and Node upgrade procedures

Where can I find the documentation on the procedure to upgrade the Hosted Engine as well as the oVirt Nodes? Specifically, both the HE and Nodes are currently at 4.4.4 and I would like to upgrade to 4.4.8.3. Also, if I remember correctly, 4.4.4 was the last version to use CentOS Linux 8 and later versions switched to CentOS Stream 8. Will the upgrade procedure automatically switch over to Stream? Is there anything I need to be aware of or concerned with regarding the switch to Stream? Your help and guidance is much appreciated.

https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/upgrade_guide/index.html ?

Not exactly - I suggest to check the release notes, e.g.: https://www.ovirt.org/release/4.4.8/

Only for oVirt Node.

Nothing that I am aware of that is specific to oVirt. Best regards, -- Didi

Thank you for the info. It is proving very useful. I was able to upgrade the Hosted Engine successfully and without incident. Unfortunately upgrading hosts failed. I'll create a new thread for that. Anyways, thanks again. Your help got things moving on my end. :)
