[ovirt-users] Upgrade 4.0.6 to 4.1.1 -- How to Update oVirt Node (4.x) Hosts?

I don’t recall doing anything special with the repositories, apart from (recently) adding the oVirt 4.1 repository. These hosts were originally deployed by downloading the oVirt Node 4.0.3 ISO image.

How should the repos be setup? Is there an RPM I can download that will install the appropriate repos?

Thanks,
Daniel

Looks like your repos are not set up correctly.  oVirt node is an image and the update is a complete image as well, containing a set packages that were tested and known to work well together.  This means that when you yum update your system, a single "ovirt-node-ng-image-update" rpm should be installed instead of a list of packages like you mentioned.  That's probably what messed things up.  How did you configure your repos ?

Hello,

I’ve attached the log file for one of the hosts from /var/log/ovirt-engine/host-deploy.

As to the manual update: yes, I ran it after removing the ovirt40 repo and adding ovirt41 repo. Here are the packages it updated:

    Good.

And yes, the RHV documentation is excellent and I’ve often turned to it. It’s too bad some of the effort ends up being duplicated. Anyway….

    You mean you do that after the above (removing 4.0 repos, adding 4.1)?

    What packages did it update?

    Please check also time-wise nearby log files for this host in
    /var/log/ovirt-engine/host-deploy and share them.
    'ovirt-host-mgmt*' is the result of checking for updates from the admin web ui.

    Adding Yuval for the node-specific issues.
