3.2. Upgrading the Manager from 4.0 to 4.1

download PDF

Upgrade the Red Hat Virtualization Manager from 4.0 to 4.1.

Important

If the upgrade fails, the engine-setup command will attempt to roll your Red Hat Virtualization Manager installation back to its previous state. For this reason, the previous version’s repositories must not be removed until after the upgrade is complete. If the upgrade fails, detailed instructions display that explain how to restore your installation.

Procedure

  1. Enable the Red Hat Virtualization 4.1 repositories:

    # subscription-manager repos \
        --enable=rhel-7-server-rhv-4.1-rpms \
        --enable=rhel-7-server-rhv-4-tools-rpms \
        --enable=jb-eap-7.1-for-rhel-7-server-rpms

    All other repositories remain the same across Red Hat Virtualization releases.

  2. Update the setup packages:

    # yum update ovirt\*setup\*
  3. Run engine-setup and follow the prompts to upgrade the Red Hat Virtualization Manager:

    # engine-setup
  4. Disable the Red Hat Virtualization 4.0 repositories to ensure the system does not use any 4.0 packages:

    # subscription-manager repos \
        --disable=rhel-7-server-rhv-4.0-rpms \
        --disable=jb-eap-7-for-rhel-7-server-rpms \
        --disable=jb-eap-7.0-for-rhel-7-server-rpms
  5. Update the base operating system:

    # yum update
  6. Reboot the machine.
