Description Lev Veyde 2015-04-29 12:40:09 EDT
Description of problem:
Currently you need to either uninstall the previous version of the installer, or at least stop the installed services before trying to install an updated version, otherwise the upgrade will fail.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.5-7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install the current version of oVirt WGT
2. Try to upgrade it with the next version
3. You will get errors about locked files

Actual results:
Errors about locked files will be shown if preparatory steps are not performed.

Expected results:
Upgrade should take care of this automatically as part of the upgrade process.

Moving to QE, as I think it might have already been done in [1] (Thanks, Vinzenz!). Didn't try by myself yet.
