[Users] Upgrading ovirt-engine from Centos dre repo

[Robert Middleswarth]

That is actually the same as beta1.  Or the same version used on testing 
day.  To upgrade You have to.

Yum Remove ovirt-engine vdsm

After all the packages are installed.  Make sure you are using his the 
3.1 repo and not the devel one that is based on master but hasn't been 
updated recently.

Yum install ovirt-engine

Run the engine-upgrade and it should give you should tell you something 
about the version being the same but force-upgrade the setup.

Thanks
Robert
