Yeah, running 

yum update 

from the affected host shows no packages marked for update:

# yum update
Loaded plugins: enabled_repos_upload, fastestmirror, imgbased-persist, 
package_upload, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager, 
vdsmupgrade,
  : versionlock

This system is not registered with an entitlement server. You can use 
subscription-manager to register.

Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * ovirt-4.3-epel: fedora.melbourneitmirror.net
No packages marked for update
Uploading Enabled Repositories Report
Cannot upload enabled repos report, is this client registered?

From the host the kernel version is 
# uname -r
3.10.0-1127.8.2.el7.x86_64


However, I updated the ovirt manager prior and that seems to have gotten the 
updated kernel:

# uname -r
3.10.0-1127.10.1.el7.x86_64


Somehow I cannot get the host to update it's kernel without maybe manually 
downloading the RPM but I don't know if that will break the Ovirt setttings.


Appreciate any advice!


Thanks
Chaz

There shouldn't be a need.  Are you sure the hosts are running the old kernel?  
The hosts should just update via "yum update", although I admit I don't know 
what the "update" function from the UI does under the covers.  I have a 
single-host hyperconverged system so I have to update manually..

You can check if there is anything to do by logging into the host and
running: "yum check-update"; it shouldn't list anything.

Thank you for the response!

I tried to do another upgrade again on the ovirt manager and can confirm that 
it is now in the supposedly fixed version of the kernel.

However, when I try to update the hosts using the prescribed gui style method 
they do report back as no updates available.

Should I force an update on the kernel on the hosts or is this not advised?

Thanks
Chaz

On the engine my update method is the following:

engine-setup
yum upgrade
engine-setup
reboot

So basically run engine-setup which will update the Ovirt packages, then you 
can "yum upgrade" to upgrade the base system, then re-run engine-setup just to 
be sure nothing broke.  Then you can reboot into the new kernel.

The reason I do this is that engine-setup wont upgrade the full OS (including 
kernel) -- it will only update the ovirt packages.

Hope this helps,
