Hi Sandro,
nice to see final 4.2!

I successfully update a test/lab nested HCI cluster from oVirt 4.1.7 +
Gluster 3.10 to oVirt 4.2 + Gluster 3.12 (automatically picked by the
upgrade)
3 hosts with CentOS 7.4

Basically following here:
https://ovirt.org/documentation/how-to/hosted-engine/#upgrade-hosted-engine

steps 5,6 substituted by reboot of the upgraded host.

My running C6 VM had no downtime during upgrade of the three hosts

Only problem I registered was the first start of engine on the first
upgraded host (that should be step 7 in link above), where I got error on
engine (not able to access web admin portal); I see this in server.log
(see full attach here
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UQAllZfjueVGkXDsBs09S7THGDFn9YPa/view?usp=sharing
)

Then I restarted the hosted engine vm on the same first upgraded host and
it was able now to correctly start and web admin portal ok. The
corresponding lines in server.log had become:

I also updated cluster and DC level to 4.2.
