Hi all! I am going though an upgrade from ovirt 4.2 (4.2.8.2-1.el7) to 4.3 for a two node cluster with self hosted engine. I have done previously upgrades from 4.1 to 4.2 successfully with minor issues which where fixed.
I wanted to confirm with you, in case I am missing anything that may have changed in the mean time, on the steps for minor and major upgrade: *# Ovirt procedure for minor upgrade: (4.x.y -> 4.x.z)* • enable global maintenance mode • at engine: engine-upgrade-check • at engine: yum update "ovirt-*-setup*" • at engine: engine-setup • at engine: yum update • at each host from GUI: host -> installation -> upgrade • at each host: yum update, reboot, activate *# Ovirt procedure for major upgrade (4.x -> 4.y)* • update DC to latest minor version (engine + nodes) • enable global maintenance • at engine: install major version repo: yum install https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release4x.rpm • at engine: engine-upgrade-check • at engine: yum update "ovirt-*-setup*" • at engine: engine-setup • at engine: remove the old ovirt release from /etc/yum.repos.d • at engine: yum update • after completion of engine upgrade disable global maintenance • verify engine version • update each host/node: update to minor, then install new repo, remove old repo, yum update, reboot, activate • after completion of updates: set DC and cluster compatibility level to latest version 4.x. • shutdown guest VMs and confirm they start up again. (you may need to disable guest disk leases or re-activate guest disks) • check events for any issues and fix accordingly Am I missing anything? I am planning the upgrade hoping to have no issues since the cluster is hosting production VMs. Thanx for any feedback! Alex
