Didn't test, I think this will work:
1. Shutdown all other VMs (as you already did)
2. Move to global maintenance: hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=global
3. Cleanly shutdown engine vm
4. stop HA daemons: service ovirt-ha-agent stop ; service ovirt-ha-broker stop
5. yum update what you need/want
6. Reboot (perhaps not always needed)
7. See that HA daemons started
8. Exit global maintenance: hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=none
9. Start engine vm (or see that HA starts it)
