Upgrade from CentOS 6.8 (oVirt 3.5) to CentOS 7 (oVirt 4.0)
I would upgrade my CentOS 6.8 to 7 on my cluster of 5 ovirt nodes (actually I'm running oVirt 3.5 and glusterfs 3.7). Anyone has experienced troubles for this upgrade? Thank you, Fedele

Udev in 6.8 seems to be broken, breaking block storage. See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2576511 I would avoid this upgrade, or test it on one hypervisor and report ovirt bug. Upgrading to 3.6 or 4.0 and centos 7.2 is recommended. Nir
ok, I understand you suggest to upgrade centos 6.8 to 7.2 first Correct? Il giorno lun, 29/08/2016 alle 14.38 +0300, Nir Soffer ha scritto:

my ultimate goal would be to have a cluster with last version of Centos and oVirt, so my question is what are the best steps: first upgrade Centos of first upgrade oVirt? The ovirt-engine is hosted Fedele Il giorno lun, 29/08/2016 alle 13.44 +0200, Fedele Stabile ha scritto:

You cannot upgrade ovirt on centos 6, since 3.5 is the last version supporting it. Best would be to upgrade the hypervisors to centos 7, which will pull latest ovirt anyway.
The ovirt-engine is hosted
Upgrading the hosted engine vm is not related and more delicate, It should be possible using hosted engine setup. Adding Simone to add more info on that.

I misread your question - you seems to already run centos 6.8. I guess you are not using block storage (iSCSI/FC), do you? Nir

On 4.0 we have a new --upgrade-appliance feature on hosted-engine-setup: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/hosted-engine-migr... The tool will ask you to take a backup pf your engine DB with engine-backup, then the tool will re-deploy a 4.0/el7 appliance automatically injecting there the backup of your 3.6 engine. The supported path is 3.6 -> 4.0 so you have also to do 3.5 -> 3.6 before that.
