Description Joey Boggs 2012-07-24 15:02:11 UTC

upgrading from engine will fail to complete the upgrade due to missing grub2 support in ovirt-config-boot. Solution is to change upgrade process to use the newer python scripts from ovirtnode

assuming the iso is mounted at /live all you need to do is:

from ovirtnode.install import *
install = Install()
install.ovirt_boot_setup()

Comment 1 Juan Hernández 2012-07-24 15:05:27 UTC

The problem appears when trying to update the node from the engine. This invokes the /usr/share/vdsm-reg/vdsm-upgrade script, and this calls /usr/libexec/ovirt-config-boot passing the mount point of the .iso as the first parameter. The result is the following:

[root@h0 admin]# /usr/share/vdsm-reg/vdsm-upgrade
<BSTRAP component='setMountPoint' status='OK' message='Mount succeeded.'/>
<BSTRAP component='doUpgrade' status='FAIL' message='boot loader install
failed. '/>
<BSTRAP component='umount' status='OK' message='umount Succeeded'/>
<BSTRAP component='RHEV_INSTALL' status='FAIL'/>
