OLVM 4.4 : Updating KVM Host from OLVM Engine host fails

edited Oct 27, 2025 8:35AM in Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager (OLVM) (MOSC) 5 commentsAnswered

I am trying to update our OLVM Cluster to the latest 4.4 Version according to manual:

I followed the manual step by step and successfully upgraded the engine host to the latest olvm 4.4 version and updated the OS to Oracle Linux 8.10.

However when I try to update the KVM Hosts which are still running on Oracle Linux 8.7 following the manual I get this below ansible error.

I already tried to create a symbolic link to from /usr/bin/python3 to /usr/bin/python on the KVM Host but I still get the same message.The installed Python version is 3.6.8
