    <br>
    First, I would recommend to put your host into maintenance mode so
    all vms are migrated to others hosts.<br>
    There are many ways to upgrade ovirt-node vintage, you can boot the
    iso, via ovirt-engine or using directly the ovirt-node-upgrade tool<br>
    which btw is called via ovirt-engine.<br>
    <br>
    However, we do not support upgrade from ovirt-node vintage to
    ovirt-node-<b>ng</b> (next). <br>
    You can download the ovirt node vintage 3.6 and use the below
    methods or ovirt-node-upgrade tool as you shared.<br>
    <br>
    To download oVirt Node 3.6: <br>
      ISO or RPM:
    <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-node_ovirt-3.6_create-iso-el7_merged/">http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-node_ovirt-3.6_create-iso-el7_merged/</a><br>
    <br>
    From: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.ovirt.org/develop/projects/node/node/">https://www.ovirt.org/develop/projects/node/node/</a>:<br>
    <h2 id="upgrading">Upgrading</h2>
    <p>There are 2 general methods for upgrading an ovirt-node
      installation.</p>
    <p><strong>1</strong>. Through oVirt Engine</p>
    <p>Require the installation of ovirt-node-iso rpm on oVirt Engine. A
      node is then placed in maintenance mode, and you trigger the
      upgrade from the engine interface.</p>
    <p><strong>2</strong>. Through oVirt Node installation media (ISO,
      CD, USB, PXE)</p>
    <p>This approach is done using installation media. Simply boot your
      host running an old version of node from new media.
      Either PXE, CDROM, USB, SD card, ISO, etc. are supported. Once you
      boot from the media, it will bring you to a TUI screen where you
      choose upgrade.
      That will upgrade and leave existing configuration in place.</p>
    <br>
    I hope that helps.<br>
