CentOS - Sep 2011 - KVM update

I am planning to update KVM packages kvm and kvm-qemu-img on a system. Do I
need to shutdown running VMs before updating these packages? Does it require
any services restart after the update? Any idea?

thanks
jM

Hi Johan,
I'm updating my KVM-Server today to 6.0cr. Thus that all of my VMs (4) and 
the server are the same Centos version, there is no need to shutdown a VM. 
After all updates i will do a reboot with all VMs and the server, but I 
think there is no needfulness.
