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.

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?
