[ovirt-users] Safe to upgrade HE hosts from GUI?

Aw crap. I did exactly the same thing and this could explain a lot of the
issues I've been pulling out my beard over. Every time I did 'hosted-engine
--deploy' on the RHEV-M|NODE host I entered the FQDN of *that* host, not
the first host, as the origin of the Gluster FS volume because at the time
I didn't realize that
a. the manager would key deduplication on the URI of the volume
b. that the volume would be mounted on FUSE, not NFS, and therefore no
single point of entry is created by using the FQDN of the first host
because the GFS client will persist connections with all peers
