Hi,

   upgrade HE (Hosted Engine ) by doing the steps below.

1) Move HE to global maintenance by running the command 'hosted-engine
--set-maintenance --mode=global'
2) Add the required repos which has higher package versions.
3) Run 'yum update ovirt\*setup\*'
4) engine-setup
5) Once the setup is done successfully please move HE out of global
maintenance mode by running the command 'hosted-engine --set-maintenance
--mode=none'

For upgrade node you can do the steps below:

1) If there is an upgrade link present in the 'General' tab of the UI, (if
ovirt node) click upgrade from UI which will move the host to maintenance
and run upgrade on the system, reboots and brings it back up to Normal
state.

2) If you do not see the upgrade link, then add the repos to which you
would want to update the node.

3) Run 'yum update'

4) Reboot the system.

5) make sure that you are on the latest image by running 'imgbase w' if it
is a ovirt node.

6)otherwise just make sure that you are on the latest kernel once your
upgrade finishes.

Hope this helps !!!!

Thanks
kasturi
