I tried to put the hosted engine VM into maint mode, but it forever just sat there in the going into maint state, and never actually went into maint state. The default Datacenter was in uninitialized state. So I tried adding an NFS storage domain, which initialized the datacenter. Now when I try and put the hosted engine VM into maint mode I get: Cannot switch the hosts to maintenance mode. There are no available hosts capable of running the engine VM. What am I doing wrong?You need to add a second host allowing the hosted engine to migrate in order to move the host to maintenance.
This is bad terminology on oVirt's part. I was wanting to add local SATA disk as I have a 1 node environment with no shared storage. To accomplish what I really wanted to do, I had to change the datacenter storage type to local storage, the a local file system option appeared in the create new storage domain diaglog.
oVirt/RHEV team really needs a good documentation writer, as this storage option isn't even documented in the storage section of the administration guide.
Installing my first 4.2 system, and it's obvious the documentation writer hasn't sat down and down and done a clean install. Lots of stuff missing.
I've never looked at Proxmox, but it's taking the hobbyist and small environment virtualization world by storm, especially after Xen's latest licensing changes. oVirt should have this. But it's way too complicated and way too fragile and way under documented.
