Hi, I have a Fedora 22 desktop that I would like to use for a ovirt hosted engine install. If I run the beta 3.6.0, will I need to reinstall when it is GA? Thanks, Paul On Tue, Aug 4, 2015 at 10:51 AM, Sandro Bonazzola <sbonazzo@redhat.com> wrote:

This is a beta release, so you can expect bugs. The upgrade process is still quite untested on hosted engine 3.6 so I think you'll have to reinstall for GA.
Thanks, Paul
