[UPDATE] oVirt update process

Hey, I have updates ready for my oVirt cluster. 3.6.1.3 from 3.6.0.1 What is the process for updating a cluster? I've looked in the admin guide, and couldn't find the info I'm after. A step by step guide would be nice. Many thanks! --julian

In order to upgrade a cluster you need to press right click and upgrade for each host in the cluster. Note that this option exists only if there is indeed actually an upgrade available for the host. Also note that it will love migrate all running VMs to another host before doing the upgrade. You can of course automate that through scripting using the API, CLI or SDK.

Thanks! I didn't think it'd be that easy when I saw the upgrade button.

What about the engine itself? There is a bug in 3.6.0 where it does not show up in the oVirt cluster. --julian

Engine upgrades are done from outside, manually via yum and Engine-setup. Not sure what bug you are referring to. Can you elaborate please?

Any tips on this part(re engine-setup)? And should the engine or nodes be done first?
