I don't know. We do not do automatic updates.This is even not recommended unless the host is on maintenance.
You can open a bug and we can have a look.

Hi,



If it's user-initiated, how do I see who initiated it?  I was in bed when

it happened so I know it wasn't me.  And I don't have any other admin

users.



Looking in my engine.log file I see:



2016-12-12 23:16:46,941 INFO

[org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.hostdeploy.VdsDeployBase]

(DefaultQuartzScheduler9) [4eb758cf] Connected to host HOST.DOM.AIN with

SSH key fingerprint: SHA256:<removed>

2016-12-12 23:16:47,020 INFO

--warning=no-timestamp -C "${MYTMP}" -x &&  "${MYTMP}"/ovirt-host-mgmt

DIALOG/dialect=str:machine DIALOG/customization=bool:True <

/var/cache/ovirt-engine/ovirt-host-deploy.tar



I can certainly send more than this... But I certainly didn't initiate

anything at 23:16, and I don't see anything in the event log in the UI.  I

*DO* see "Host has available updates" message in the log from 23:17, but

that doesn't explain why the system would auto-install (or auto-update)

the 'iproute' package??



[host]# tail -f /var/log/yum.log:

Dec 12 23:17:17 Updated: iproute-3.10.0-74.el7.x86_64



Any ideas?



Thanks,



-derek
