Daniel, It seems clear to me that for some reason Fedora 16 can't access the RTC (real time clock - hardware clock) on your computer's motherboard. Odd that RHEL 6.2 can but I forget what it is based on. Anyway can you try a Fedora 17 live cd and see if the "hwclock --show" command works? If it doesn't, I am thinking that you will want to file a bugzilla. If it does work, then vdsm and ovirt-node-2.5.0 will work for you on Fedora 17. - Nick -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: dye...@trustedcs.com To: cybertimber2...@hotmail.com Subject: RE: [Users] Host installation failed with error "Unable to set host time" Hi, Nicholas, I like to give you an update. I found that hwclock worked perfectly fine on RHEL 6.2 system. I am still puzzling why it failed in Fedora 16. I am thinking of installing oVirt 3.0 on RHEL 6.2 to see how it turns out. If you find anything, please let me know. Thanks a lot.

I am wondering if this is a bug in Fedora 16 or maybe I am missing the driver or related rpm. Let me know if you find anything. Thank you for your help.

Any hints? Thank you. DY _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users I'll take a stab at it. Can you post the output of these two commands? Exclude the # #date #hwclock --show
