Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] Q: Node Upgrade Path

Hi,

OK, thanks for the tip.
I always upgraded nodes via oVirt web interface, which is now 4.4.7, and I 
assume it can't update node 4.2 -> 4.3, because 4.3 is too old. Please correct 
if I'm wrong here.

May I use these commands to safely upgrade nodes manually?

yum check-update
yum clean all
yum update
yum remove ovirt-release42
yum install
