Hi All,
Sorry if this was mentioned previously (I obviously missed it if it was) but can we
upgrade an oVirt (latest version) Host/Cluster and/or the oVirt Engine VM from Rocky Linux
(RHEL) v8.6/8.7 to v9.1 (yet), and if so, what is / where can I find the procedure to do
this - ie is there anything "special" that needs to be done because of oVirt, or
can we just do a "simple" v8.x +> v9.1 upgrade?
Thanks in advance
Cheers

For the engine itself, be sure to take a backup then I would consider to
re-install the host and restore the backup.
For the node I would put the host in maintenance and remove it from the
cluster, reinstall it with 9.1 and add it to the cluster.
If you decide to attempt an in-place upgrade let us know how it goes.

I tried several ways to upgrade a node and the hosted-engine and it didn´t work. The
upgrade of a standard installation of Rocky 8.x to 9 works fine, but when you add the
Ovirt/CentOS repositories, dnf starts to throw a bunch of conflicts and it doesn´t work
anymore, and you have just bricked your host.
Reinstall a node is easy. The problem is reinstall a node with GlusterFS hyper converged.
For the hosted-engine, the only option would be reinstall it and restore a backup, right?
It would be really nice if the Leapp
(https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/...)
was available for CentOS and Rocky.

I wrote a summary, when I reinstalled my home cluster (AFAIK I changed
from CentOS 7 to 8 in the meanwhile)
