(In reply to msheena from comment #0) > Description of problem > ====================== > Given I have a VM with ovirt-engine-4.2.8.9-0.1.el7ev.noarch installed and > deployed > When I put a 4.3.10 yum repository on the VM > And perform a `yum update` > Then yum fails over dependency issues Hmm, have you used the correct upgrade procedure? 1. Add 4.3 repos/channels 2. Run 'yum update engine\*setup\* rh\*vm\*setup\*' 3. Run 'engine-setup' 4. Run 'yum update' More details at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.3/html/upgrade_guide/upgrading_the_manager_to_4-3_4-0_local_db yum update engine\*setup\* rh\*vm\*setup\*' Output for `yum versionlock status` =================================== # yum versionlock status Loaded plugins: langpacks, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager, versionlock This system is not registered with an entitlement server. You can use subscription-manager to register. https://access.redhat.com/articles/1320623 If above article doesn't help to resolve this issue please open a ticket with Red Hat Support. 0:ovirt-engine-webadmin-portal-4.3.10-0.2.el7.* 0:ovirt-engine-tools-backup-4.3.10-0.2.el7.* 0:ovirt-engine-restapi-4.3.10-0.2.el7.* 0:ovirt-engine-dbscripts-4.3.10-0.2.el7.* 0:rhvm-4.3.10-0.2.el7.* 0:ovirt-engine-4.3.10-0.2.el7.* 0:ovirt-engine-backend-4.3.10-0.2.el7.* 0:ovirt-engine-tools-4.3.10-0.2.el7.* versionlock status done I have been able to successfully upgrade from 4.2.8.9 to 4.3.10-0.2 using following steps: 1. Install 4.2.8.9 # yum install http://bob.eng.lab.tlv.redhat.com/builds/latest_4.2/rhv-release-latest-4.2.noarch.rpm # yum check-update # yum install rhvm # engine-setup 2. Upgrade to 4.3.10 # yum install http://bob.eng.lab.tlv.redhat.com/builds/4.3/rhv-4.3.10-2/rhv-release-engine-latest-4.3.noarch.rpm # yum check-update # yum update ovirt\*setup\* rh\*vm-setup-plugins # engine-setup There are still some OS updates which can updated afterwards using 'yum update', but the important thing is that upgrade went fine and I haven't seen any issues around missing packages. I have been staying on RHEL 7.7 all the time, so to be completely correct and perform even RHEL updates, you should do something like below: 1. Install RHEL 7.6 and update to latest 7.6.z 2. Install 4.2.8.9 (steps above) 3. Enable RHEL 7.y repos 4. Upgrade to 4.3.10 (steps above) 5. Update the rest of packages using yum update and reboot the machine |
