Description Yedidyah Bar David 2018-12-26 08:44:18 UTC 
It would be nice if the web admin checks and notifies the user if an update for the engine is available.

Some (optional ?) details:

1. Check if installed version of ovirt-engine is older than available one. If so, update is available.

2. Check if installed version of ovirt-engine-setup is different from installed version of ovirt-engine. If so, user updated setup, but needs to run 'engine-setup'.

Perhaps we can use engine-upgrade-check for part of the logic. If so, will have to change it.

I now pushed [1] to notify the user during yum update of the setup package. This is not a replacement for current bug (which is about notifying in the UI), but complements.
