Hi,

OK, thanks for the tip.
I always upgraded nodes via oVirt web interface, which is now 4.4.7, and I assume it can't update node 4.2 -> 4.3, because 4.3 is too old. Please correct if I'm wrong here.

May I use these commands to safely upgrade nodes manually?

yum check-update
yum clean all
yum update
yum remove ovirt-release42
yum install https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.3/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-node-ng-image-update-4.3.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm

If the hardware is old, and won't support EL8, the best option is to update to 
oVirt 4.3.10 and update CentOS to 7u9.

Some of my systems have megaraid sas2 raid controllers, which Red Hat have 
stopped supporting, and all the variant have followed suit.

I have tried the Elrepo DUD's to work around the problem, but my results (in 
the 4.4.1/4.4.2 timeframe) were not satisfactory.

Hi,


I have 2 oVirt nodes still running on CentOS 7.6.
rpm -qa | grep ovirt - results in version 4.2.

Does it makes sense to upgrade CentOS 7.6 to Stream, and then upgrade oVirt 
Node sw, or just leave for a couple of years till hardware will be trashed?
I’m always keep oVirt Engine up to date, so my only concern if at any point it 
will stop support old Node sw.

Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
Andrei
