[ovirt-users] Upgrading from oVirt-Node 4.2.8 to latest
Hi All, is there a way to go from 4.2.8 on ovirt node to go directly to the latest version, without reinstalling the node from the iso file ? I wasn't able to find anything in documentation on how to get this done.

Greetings fabian Hi, If i install the oVirt node software to a server with a SSD disk, where do I have to deploy the new version on the engine so that I can upgrade the node? Just to summarize and put this all in one place: There are 2 general methods for upgrading an ovirt-node installation. 1. Through oVirt Engine 2. Through oVirt Node installation media (ISO, CD, USB, PXE) #1 is done by installing the ovirt-node-iso rpm on oVirt Engine. A node is then placed in maintenance mode, and you trigger the upgrade from the engine interface. #2 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. There are some other options as well, but they're in a slightly different, but related, category. Reinstall: This will wipe out any existing configuration and install from scratch This is done either by choosing the Reinstall option in the Boot menus (with CD/USB/SD Card) or adding reinstall to the kernel command line (any method). Uninstall: This will wipe the ovirt-node-iso installation from the disk entirely and reboot. Again, there is a Uninstall option in the boot menu. You can also add uninstall to the kernel command line.

Hi, If i deploy the ISO on a ISO NFS share the engine detects that it is a new node image?

(I'm guessing it won't work right now in 3.1, at least due to bad config of path for location of the iso, etc.), but worth trying to clean this up.
