You can try:

hosted-engine --deploy
--otopi-environment='OVEHOSTED_CORE/screenProceed:bool:True'

OK :-)

Only now I realized you wrote 'ovirt-event-notifier' :-)

Please do.

Actually it was never named ovirt-event-notifier. AFAICT this string only
ever existed in this message, probably some simple typo no-one ever noticed
until you did now :-)

It indeed was renamed in the past, though. It's previous name was
'engine-notifierd':

Good.

So that should be enough, no? IIRC command-line options override conf
file in sshd, no need to play games with rpm/yum.

In general, things under /usr are only packaged, not "managed". So a
next upgrade will overwrite your changes.

Seems like both its systemd unit and sysv init script read
/etc/sysconfig/ovirt-vmconsole-proxy-sshd if it exists and add
${OPTIONS} to sshd's command line. So you can try to:

echo 'OPTIONS="-o GSSAPIAuthentication=yes"' >>
/etc/sysconfig/ovirt-vmconsole-proxy-sshd

and restart it.

You were asked:

iptables was detected on your computer, do you wish setup to configure it?

and replied 'No'. So it later told you:

 The following network ports should be opened:
 tcp:5900
 tcp:5901
 udp:5900
 udp:5901
 An example of the required configuration for iptables
can be found at:
 /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/iptables.example

Did you?

Also, your vdsm.log has lots of noise found on the hosted-engine storage.
Something like:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1238823

Please provide versions of relevant packages on host and engine vm and HA logs
(/var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/*).

Adding Martin.

> P.S. The log files were about 10 MB so I zipped it all

Thanks.

You can also upload to some file-sharing service and post a link, might be
more comfortable for some of the subscribers of this list.

I guess it's very common on hosts as a client, not sure about server.
I guess most setups use separate machines to host VMs and for storage.

The default rules open only, AFAIU, mandatory stuff - ports for vdsm

That's currently not supported by hosted-engine setup.

otopi itself also reads these files from /etc/otopi.conf and
/etc/otopi.conf.d/*.conf
(both do not exist by default, but you can create what you want).

All tools will read it, so be careful about what you add there. This
might include
also host-deploy.

hosted-engine setup has special handling for '--config-append', but in
principle you
can use that. It might be difficult on additional hosts, due to this
special handling.

You can also try imitating the behavior of engine-setup by passing e.g.:

hosted-engine --deploy
--otopi-environment="APPEND:CORE/configFileName=str:/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup.conf"

This is an old, unmaintained component. You should use the new aaa-ldap one.
Search the list archives for "aaa-ldap" and/or read the README file in the

Perhaps you do not have an IP address on that interface? You do need one.
The engine will communicate with the host using this address.

Because of the way the deploy script is currently implemented, it would be
hard to completely undo changes on failure (which we do try hard in
engine-setup). We have an open RFE for supplying a cleanup tool:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1001181

See also:

http://www.ovirt.org/documentation/how-to/hosted-engine/#recoving-from-failed-install

The source package also has:
https://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-hosted-engine-setup.git;a=blob;f=cleanup.sh;h=89b315339022eff341042dd47d42bd979cf67176;hb=HEAD
It's currently down for some reason, not sure. A mirror is available at:
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/blob/master/cleanup.sh

All of these are far from perfect, and reinstalling the OS is way safer
when trying to debug such issues.

Not that I am aware of.

loopback-mounting nfs is considered unsafe due to locking issues, see:
https://lwn.net/Articles/595652/

You can use iSCSI.

Most people install it on more than one machine. For a single machine,
usually virt-manager is enough.

Of course you can use VMs with nested-kvm to virtualize more than one
machine on a single one, if you mainly do this for testing/learning/etc.

Proper support is currently partial. Search the net for e.g. 'ovirt
hyperconvergence' for the current efforts. The plan is to require at
least 3 physical machines, to have a replica-3 gluster storage and
quorum. It should be possible today to deploy on a single machine with
gluster, supplying three different paths for gluster all on the same
machine.

For best results, currently, you should have at least 3 machines:
One for storage (or a dedicated storage appliance), two for hosted-engine
hosts providing high-availability.

Are you following the upgrade instructions [1] in the release notes?

[1] http://www.ovirt.org/release/3.6.3/#install--upgrade-from-previous-versions

Please note that the package 'ovirt-engine' itself, and several
others, are version-locked, and should only be updated by
engine-setup, so will not appear when you run 'yum update'.

Just first do a restore on an isolated VM and see what happens.

If you did not have local/manual customizations, I'd expect the restore to
work. Things that will not work you'll generally found out only after the
restore, depending on your env, the state of the engine, etc. See e.g. also:

IMO it should have passed this point. Use the answer file in
/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine,
not in /var . If all goes well they should be identical, otherwise
/etc will have the
"last known good" one and /var will have all.

But it might fail later during host-deploy. That stage requires ssh
from the engine
to the host as root (currently, there's an open RFE about this). But it does not
require a password, because we add the engine's public key to the host's
/root/.ssh/authorized_keys. So if you allow ssh as root with public key auth, it
should work.

Please check/post setup logs to try and understand why it was
identified as 1st host.

>> - scp from an account other than 'root'

Not difficult in principle, currently not supported. As Sandro said, you can
open an RFE.

It seems like there are some left-overs in vdsm from previous attempts.
If you want to further debug this, please:
1. Try to give exact flow, including what you tried, changed etc at each point
2. Attach all setup logs and all vdsm logs

If you just want it all to work, please reinstall the machine from scratch
and try again, and if you get into problems on first attempt, check/post

The word "task" has a quite specific meaning in the engine, and installation
of a host is not a task. Generally speaking, AFAIK, you can't easily cancel
a task.

To debug host installation, while the installation is running, you can check
/tmp of the host. You should be able to find there stuff of ovirt-host-deploy,
which is the program running on the host to deploy it. If you manage to find
the log, please check/post it. Thanks.

Do you have NetworkManager?

This is a complication caused by the way hosted-engine is implemented.

The main use-case for hosted-engine is for "cheap HA" (cheap = no extra
software and no dedicated hardware).

If all you want is a simple management interface for one host, you are
probably better off using virt-manager or something like that.

I think most people using oVirt on a single host do this mainly for
testing/education/etc and (intend to) also use it on a larger setup.

Perhaps. Actually we are trying to get rid of it:

https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/decommission-master-domain-and-spm/

Normally it's the first "normal" data domain, used to store VMs.

Not sure about minimum size if you do not intend to store VMs there.
I guess it can be very small - a few MBs or so.

Yes.

No.

If you enter the wrong password, interaction with the engine will simply fail.

Actually it should be enough to ask once and verify immediately (by trying to
connect to the engine), please file an RFE bug about this... Thanks!

This is how it currently works.

This is because the hosted_storage domain can't be used as the "master
storage domain", and such as master is required for many things.

Did this solve all your problems? If not, please:
1. Try again with 3.6.3, which should be out in a few days, or the latest
RC [1].
2. If you still have problems, please state versions of OSes and whatever
other relevant tools, and post (links to) full logs of both the host and
the engine:
/var/log/ovirt*
/var/log/vdsm*

Now copied the command from the attached file and it worked for me.

If it still does not work for you, please run this:

BACKUP_ENV_CLEAN=1 sh -x /usr/bin/engine-backup --mode=backup --scope=files
--file=veng.bak --log backup.log > engine-backup-out 2> engine-backup-err

and check/post engine-backup-out and engine-backup-err (as links to some

You have an EM DASH (U+2014) instead of two HYPHEN-MINUS (U+002D) in front
of 'file='.

Where did you copy that command from?

Re: [ovirt-users] Upgrade patch 3.5 -> 3.6

Thanks for pointing that out!

Does this mean you actually tried this and that was the only issue?

Note also that EL7 also has iptables, you can use that if you want.
You'll have to do something like:
yum install iptables-services
systemctl disable firewalld.service
systemctl enable iptables.service
systemctl start iptables.service
You'll not have any default /etc/sysconfig/iptables, though. Either create
one manually (or find somewhere) or use e.g. system-config-firewall-tui.

Generally speaking, first engine then nodes. I am pretty certain it's documented

Please explain exactly what you are trying to do.

Note that engine is still supported on el6.

(new) Hosts are not.

all-in-one is running both together, thus is not supported on el6 either.

IIRC we do not have a tested procedure to upgrade the engine from C6 to C7
yet, see also:

Seems like a bug in [1] - seems like we do not configure the bridge anymore
on additional host. But I didn't yet try that myself, I might be missing
something. Adding Simone.

Please note that the above page is very old and unmaintained, and should only
be used to get some detailed reference about the process. It also mentions in
bold, close to the beginning, "This howto is intended for oVirt 3.1 version."

Please use the tool engine-backup and related pages about it.

If you encounter problems please report them.

Thanks!

In principle, yes.

You'll also have to take care of iptables etc., also postgresql stuff
(create user/database, allow access).

If you have dwh, you'll have to configure it too.

Check this for some similar flows:

Sorry, I missed that. I think that 'service ovirt-engine start' will
be enough - no engine-setup will be needed, and that if you do run it
(e.g. to upgrade), that too will work correctly.

IIRC you were prompted by engine-setup asking whether to renew, also
pointing you at [1], which mentions that you'll have to update the new ca
cert in browsers and reinstall hosts.

We already got one such report [1], but didn't manage to understand how it
happened, and the machine was later reinstalled. Sandro - it does have a
sosreport attached, perhaps you want to take a look too.

Eric - please also check audit (selinux) logs, and please also try running
under strace, something like:

Open shell1:
# echo $$

note the pid, and then:

Open shell2:
# strace -f -o /tmp/engine-trace -s 4096 -tt -p PID
(where PID is the pid of shell1)

Then on shell1:
# service ovirt-engine start

Then please attach the trace to bug [1]. Thanks!

Can you please try this as root on the engine machine:

HOST=192.168.208.21; D=$(mktemp -d /tmp/test123-XXX); echo test >
"${D}"/f1; tar -C "${D}" -cf - . | ssh -i
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/engine_id_rsa "${HOST}" 'umask 0077;
MYTMP="$(TMPDIR="${OVIRT_TMPDIR}" mktemp -d -t ovirt-XX)";
trap "chmod -R u+rwX \"${MYTMP}\" > /dev/null 2>&1; rm -fr
\"${MYTMP}\" > /dev/null 2>&1" 0; tar --warning=no-timestamp -C
"${MYTMP}" -x &&  ls -lR "${MYTMP}"'; rm -rf "${D}"

If it does not work, please try running sshd on the host under strace, e.g.:

strace -f -o /tmp/trace-sshd -tt -s 4096 -p $(cat /var/run/sshd.pid)

and then check/post /tmp/trace-sshd.

You can do this with both the test command above and host-deploy.
You can kill strace when finished.

Did you check this _during_ deploy? Or after it failed?

Can you check again during deploy?

It should be inside a temporary sub directory of /tmp .

Just noting that some months ago there was a significant change in management
of ovirt bugs in bugzilla, see e.g. [1] [2]. This was done also so that
spreadsheets will not be needed anymore.

Seems like a result of the fix for [1].

Please check/post vdsm/libvirt/qemu versions and logs.

Do you have any vdsm hooks installed?

Was this system upgraded from a previous version? Please
state the upgrade history.

Thanks.

AFAIK you can't migrate the engine vm to a hypervisor (host or node) that is
not a hosted-engine host. you'd need to deploy the node as a hosted-engine
host. ovirt-node allows this too in 3.5+, see e.g.:

Is this a hosted-engine setup? Where does the engine run?

Do you have other hosted-engine hosts?

What's the output, on the hosted-engine host, of 'hosted-engine --vm-status'?

As Martin already replied,

http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.6/rpm/el6/noarch/

Now verified that this works for me on a centos6 machine:

yum install http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release36.rpm
yum --showduplicates list slf4j
=> shows (also) 1.7.7-1.el6

Didn't try that myself, but I think it should work.
It only deals with the engine, though. Whatever other stuff you had on the
engine machine, including an iso domain, extra packages/services/conf/etc.,
you'll have to recreate (or copy if relevant).

You might also want to see what our code checks, see e.g. [1],
which is part of ovirt-host-deploy and is used also by
ovirt-hosted-engine-setup.

If you want to use it directly, you can do something like:

# yum install ovirt-host-deploy
# python -c 'from ovirt_host_deploy import hardware; v =
hardware.Virtualization(); print "OK" if
v.detect()==v.DETECT_RESULT_SUPPORTED else "Not OK"'

Sorry, this should have been all on one line but wrapped by my

# python -c '\
from ovirt_host_deploy import hardware; \
v = hardware.Virtualization(); \
print( \
"OK" if \

Perhaps you also rebooted the host?

You can try to check the logs in /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha and/or
restart the ha services.

Re: [ovirt-users] How to manually restore ovirt-engine from sql dump file?

Only db? Rest of machine is ok? You also want stuff
in /etc (and /var, somewhat less important).

These are saved during engine-setup, and are backups made
with the version you had _before_ starting the upgrade.

They are meant only for restoration during rollback,
by engine-setup itself, in case it has a problem and tries
to rollback.

> Is it possible to restore database using dump files?

In principle yes, but unless you have a backup of /etc
taken _before_ the last upgrade, you'll have an older
dump with a newer /etc, which might lead to conflicts.

You can try something like that. First on a test system
of course:
1. yum remove ovirt-engine\*
2. yum install ovirt-engine with the exact version you had
before last upgrade. You can check logs in
/var/log/ovirt-engine/setup and/or /var/log/yum.log.
3. Keep (or copy/restore) /etc/ovirt-engine and
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine. If you had dwh/reports you'll need
more files. Also better check the list of backed up files
in the start of the engine-backup script to see what else
it backs up.
4. Restore the db using psql (if <= 3.5) or pg_restore
(if >=3.6). If needed first create one.
5. run engine-setup --offline and see that all seems ok.
6. Then upgrade to latest by running engine-setup without
--offline.

> BTW the VMs are still running without ovirt-engine.

Indeed, but are not managed. Meaning, no ha/scheduling/etc.

Note that if you do try that on a test system, it will immediately
try to manage your hosts. Better prevent that (firewall or
whatever) before you are ready to do that on your live system.

Good luck,

For even less attended and hopefully quicker deploys, you can try
ovirt-appliance. It's still not published on our repos, but you can use the
last one from jenkins:

It should have worked also in 3.5 in principle, not sure about your specific
problems.

In principle pre-creating the bridge should work, but is not commonly tested.

Perhaps you also had issues with NetworkManager?

IIUC it should not do anything to the engine vm or the ha daemons.

Not sure what you are trying to do - deploy hosted-engine inside this vm?

Did you enable nested kvm?

Note that you need el (rhel or centos) 7 for the host, if using 3.6.

Not sure where you got elrepo repos, but I do not think they are from
ovirt. Please try a clean setup without them. Do you need them?

engine-backup does not directly call nor need java.

AFAICS it only calls it indirectly as part of some other initialization
by running java-home [1], which is a script that decides what JAVA_HOME
to use for the engine. This script only runs 'java -version', which imo
should not need that much memory. Perhaps there is something else I do
not fully understand, such as bacula severely limiting available resources
for the process it runs, or something like that.

If you only want to debug it, and not as a recommended final solution,
you can create a script [2] which only outputs the needed java home.
Simply run [1] and make [2] echo the same thing. If [2] exists, [1] will
only run it and nothing else, as you can see inside it.

I do not think this will work - quite likely engine-backup will fail
shortly later, if indeed it gets access to so little memory. Please
report back. Thanks and good luck,

Re: [ovirt-users] Migration path: All-In-One to self-hosted engine?

I am not aware of anyone trying that.

You can start with [1]. Note that it does not deal with db creation - this is
discussed in [2], but also note that if you use 3.6, you can use the new
'--provision-*' options during restore.

Please carefully read both of them and understand what's to be expected.

Is this a semi-critical system? Or can you easily suffer a few days of downtime?

Do you intend/hope to use the existing storage domain? Note that hosted-engine
does not (currently?) support local storage - it requires some shared storage,
nfs/iscsi/fc. And also that people ran into locking issues with a loopback nfs
mount. So it seems like the best bet is currently loopback iscsi, which means
you'll have to copy your existing data over there somehow.

A rough plan can thus be something like, assuming you have plenty of disk space:
1. shutdown all VMs
2. create a loopback iscsi export domain and export your VMs there
3. Continue with [1] (and [2])
4. During hosted-engine deploy use a different iscsi data domain for the engine
5. After finishing, attach to that export domain and import your VMs from it

I might be missing some parts, didn't fully think this over.

It will be greatly simplified if you have a separate storage server.

from host:
/var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-*/* (-setup and -ha)
/var/log/vdsm/*

from engine:
/var/log/ovirt-engine/*
/var/log/ovirt-engine/host-deploy/*

If last one is empty, it means the engine did not manage to get
host-deploy logs. Please check and try to copy what you find from /tmp
of the host while waiting for host-deploy ("Waiting for the host to

Did you principally do exactly the same thing in 3.5 and 3.6?
In both cases just had a simple network interface (no vlan/bonding/whatever)
and input it when asked?

What exact versions (OS and ovirt)?

I also changed the subject.

With hosted-engine, the engine runs in its own VM. If you allocate to
this VM 4GB, you get Sandro's calculation.

IIUC yes, you'll be able to replace a file.

Re: [ovirt-users] Cannot retrieve answer file from 1st HE host when setting up 2nd host

The answerfile is expected to be found in
/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/answers.conf .
It's written there upon a successful completion of deploy.

It's also always written to /var/lib/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/answers/ .

You can also copy it by yourself to somefile and run:

hosted-engine --deploy --config-append=somefile

But I'd invest some time understanding why scp fails. Might be bad
name resolution?

If you check the "Disks" tab, you'll see there an ID tab.

For nfs/qcow, that's a directory name to be found under 'images'
inside the storage domain. Under this directory you'll find several
files (data, metadata and lease) per each snapshot of this disk.
Not sure any of this is documented and/or intended for direct
manipulation.

Yes.

You might want to have a look at [1], especially page 15. I can only find
a link to it at [2], perhaps we should link elsewhere too (e.g. howto page).

Adding Richard.

IIRC people managed to do that by merely creating a new vm and copying the
existing one over the new empty disk. No idea about details, you might want
to search the list archives.

It must have already been attached, because otherwise the engine vm would
not be up. So it might be some inconsistency between the engine and host.

Well, I can think of other things as well, such as doing such a test
during rpm/yum install stage, etc., but the question is how far should
we go - there are many other ways to break ovirt, and we can't
possibly consider all of them. That said, I guess patches are welcome

No, this currently does not work, see [1] [2].

Please check [3] for something that currently works, although is not
very elegant.
Basically, just yum remove it and remove some extra files.

I thought this was already discussed some messages ago.

No idea, but you should check your sudo (and perhaps related? e.g. pam
or whatever)
conf. vdsm ships /etc/sudoers.d/50_vdsm which normally works.
If you changed it, or have some other conflicting configuration,
this might break it.

(Only briefly skimming the history of this thread:)

If all you want is to have it up and running, I'd suggest reinstalling
the OS and then try again. Quite likely you have there some local
non-default configurations or something. If it still fails, I'd suggest
to open a bug, describe exact flow, and attach all relevant logs. When
you reinstall the OS, keep in mind that things like a custom kickstart
file etc are also non-default configurations, so if you need them,
attach them to the bug as well.

If you are aware of such non-default stuff but do need them, you
basically have two choices:
1. Keep on debugging this til it works. We can try helping, but can't
guess every change you did to your system. In particular, as Simone
said before, sudo is configured to work out-of-the-box by default.
2. Try a clean vanilla OS install on another system and compare them
to try and see what difference breaks. This can be done also on a VM
with nested kvm, if you do not have a spare physical machine.

Best,

This does not seem possible currently. It should be a simple patch to
add another env key for that. patches (in gerrit) or RFEs (in
bugzilla) are welcome :-)

If you want to patch, check [1]. Do not hesitate to ask questions.

otopi ignores the PATH in env.

It defaults to:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

You can change that by something like:
cat << __EOF__ > /etc/ovirt-engine-setup.conf.d/99-my-path.conf
[environment:default]
SYSTEM/commandPath=str:/usr/pgsql-9.4/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
__EOF__

Or just pass on the command line:

engine-setup 
--otopi-environment='SYSTEM/commandPath=str:/usr/pgsql-9.4/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin'

grep for commandPath in the log file to see that it worked.

Never tried this myself, though. You might face problems also with pg libraries,
including making psycopg2 use your own libs. Please report about
success/failure/problems.
Thanks.

Good luck,
