[Users] Fedora upgrading from 3.1 to 3.2

[Karli Sjöberg]

Hi!

More than two months have passed without any notices or updates on this issue, and looking at the bugreport absolutely nothing has been done since then. What´s confusing me is that the release management for oVirt 3.2 has this clearly printed:
"MUST: Upgrade from previous release"

And you all seem too busy with getting the next release out of the door before fixing the current... What gives? Don´t you care about early adopters?

Best Regards
Karli Sjöberg

Indeed, I have not seen any documentation in the wiki yet on upgrading
oVirt - would you be interested in writing up your experiences there as
a guide to others?

Thanks!
Dave.



That was my intention to share a working procedure once it was complete but I unfortunately hit a wall at "engine-upgrade". I would be very glad, and able to continue, if that obstacle could be lifted.

My experience in upgrading from oVirt-3.1/Fedora 17 to oVirt-3.2/Fedora 18:

On Fedora 17:
Be sure to have the latest updates running: yum distro-sync
Set exclude=ovirt* in /etc/yum.conf
Execute: fedup --disablerepo=ovirt* --network 18

When you have a running Fedora 18:

However, during the upgrade I've stepped into https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=906270
We are still working on the upgrade actions.
Our procedures looks almost exactly the same, and we have gotten just as far as you have. Good to know.
