Hi, I'm running OLVM/oVirt 4.5.7 with a self-hosted Engine on Oracle Linux 8 and need to move the Engine to Oracle Linux 9. Oracle currently publishes an EL8 to EL9 upgrade procedure for a standalone Engine, but I haven't been able to find an equivalent procedure for a self-hosted Engine. I'm assuming an in-place OS upgrade isn't the recommended approach. What is the correct procedure for an existing self-hosted Engine? Is there an upstream oVirt guide covering an EL8 to EL9 migration, and has anyone successfully performed this with 4.5.7? Thanks, Klokanovic
Hi, backup the engine database, deploy the new SHE machine leveraging OL9 and point the same to the backup taken.
